Thank you. I should have seen females on one side and males on the other!
Now that we know she is the right person the old letter is making more sense. It says that Karen Brynildsdatter was: " a daughter of Brynild Asbjørnsen Bakke and wife Inger Andersdatter Brække. and was baptized 08/31/1760". So far the dates have not been all accurate. I have looked for her bapt record but did not find it yet. |

The letter mentions Martha Torgalsdatter and says she married "merchant Bigum" and had a daughter "Sorin" who married a butcher named Ole Andersen. now I know who she was - and can find out more on her side of the family too! thanks

Seems like you still have family on Bakke in Halden !!
The info above comes from a Norwegian family tree. I just wanted to check a few records before I posted it here

You are welcome. To find the Norwegian family tree was a combination of luck and long experience in searching for names.
A recurrent problem is to spell old names correctly.
