All the nearly identical names on Lindheim can be confusing Heidi.

About Guttorm Rolfsen who married Bispop Eysteins sister Asgerd Aslaksdatter Berg.

Torleiv Saksabjørnnsson, his son was;
Bjørn Torleivsson, his son was;
Rolleiv Bjørnsson (married Gunvor Alvarsdatter Hem), he was Guttorm Rolleivsson (Rolfsson´s ) father.

Rolleivsson (Sauherad dialect) and Rolfsson are used in various documents.

After the 1438 piece treaty with the farmers the hated Svarte Jens Black Jens (his real name was Jøns Nilsson Skaaning) was replaced by Olaf Buk Brunla, Castellan on Akershus Fortress.
Olav Buks sister Katarina married Hartvig Krummedige, he became member of the Norwegian council.

- Mattias Torgeirsson as on behalf of the farmers in Vestfold negosiated with Sigrid Nikulasdatter Brunla 1439, his grandmother Joron at Brunla and Mæla`s stephfather was Nikulas Sveinsson Galle.
Sigrid Nikulasdatter was Nikulas Sveinsson Galles daughter from his 2. marriage.

Torleiv Saksabjørnsson Lindheim also had a son Ormar Torleivsson, he cultivated Klevar in Sauherad before he moved out and became "lensmann" sheriff and local judge in Sandsvær parish mentioned as a witness between Priest Arne and Thore Hvam to set a proper boundary between the church´s property and Hvam kept on Hvam Oct. 4. 1410, mentioned as Ormær Tolleifsson lensman, see 6. line from bottom here, his recidence was farm Brønstad, Ormar died 1412.
His wife is unknown, a som Solve /Sølve Ormsson owned Brønstad 1470

Ellie´s (hjemmet) documents has much more information, hjemmet in Norwegian means Hem, this refers to the Lindheim people.

Any questions, I will try to answere them according my best abilities.

Perfect thanks!~
You done so much for me, I don't want to take up too much of you time. I should be able to answer most of my questions with all the pieces of the puzzle you have provided.
That's the fun part!

Now I have a few other branches of the family tree that need to be worked on. They are no where near as complete as my Hem side (due to you and Ellie).
Keep in touch! Mange tusen takk!

- Heidi

Vær så god.
yes do that, with so many new names and places to learn about you may perhaps need a wider wall to fit all the branches in your family tree.
