I am happy with what was found about Martinus Bjerke.I was wondering if there is any information about his family and other ancestors regarding birth and death certificates.I would appreciate any help you could give me, or where I can find it myself. Thanks for the help.

The parish church records is where you would find documentation of births and deaths.

The Digitalarkivet web site has been adding scanned images of the original Norwegian parish church records for anyone with Internet access since November 2005.

The Digitalarkivet web site - http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/WebFront.exe?slag=vis&tekst=meldingar
An English option is available by clicking on that word from either the left hand column or the blue link bar along the bottom of the homepage.
The scanned images are available from the homepage link "Skanna kyrkjebøker" [Norwegian version]/"Digitised parish records" [English version] which is listed along the left hand column and from the blue banner of links along the top section of the homepage.
After you've clicked on that link and a new main page has presented on the screen be sure and read the instructions that are available from the Digitalarkivet for navigating the scanned records. The instructions are available in Bokmål (official Norwegian), Nyorsk (Norwegian), Davvisámegiella (Saami), and English.
Recommended basic reading are the "Startsiden" [Norwegian version]/"Main page" [English version], "Brukerveiledning" [Norwegian version]/"User's guide" [English version] and "Om tjenesten" [Norwegian version]/"About this service" [English version].

Good information about translating the formats of Norwegian parish church records during various time periods, many of the basic terms used and understanding how to use the information should be studied at this web site -

You probably know enough from your earlier posting to start using the various Bygdebøker that are available for Hedmark fylke (county). Depending upon where you live these books can be availabel through Interlibrary Loan, Family History Centers on microfilm, or University libraries, U of Minn, U of North Dakota and U of Wis. have especially good collections. Explore this site for information.

And this part of the site for a list of the Bygdebøker for Rendalen and Åmot.
