I have been given a sheet of paper from my late great aunt, which I believe is a "family tree" of sorts. It is written in Norwegian (which I cannot speak or read), and I have tried translating using online translater tools, however some of the words I'm not sure are they names of people or names of places, and the names, are they the given names or the surname/family name? As well, I am hoping to be able to verify the information, and confirm these are the correct names and dates, and see if this information will lead me to any other information on these relatives. I am hoping someone here might provide me some assistance.

Here is a portion of the information I have:

Slektsopplysninger for Inger Kristin Nylænd
Mikkel Halstensen Bækken, døpt 20.91807, død 28.7.1869. g 2.7.1837

Anne Marie Amundsdtr. Bakken, f 16.5.1881, d 8.1.1979.
Neste brukere av Nylænd.


I presume, from what I have translated:
"f" = fødsel/birth
"g"= gift/married.
"d" = død/death.
The numbers are all dates in day/month/year format.

Thank you so much!!

I just want to make sure I'm understanding correctly, the names/places, for example: Ingbrigt Iversen, Qvilvangen. The first name is Ingbrigt, the last name is Iversen, and the place is Qvilvangen?

Also,
is there any further information on:
Ingeborg Olsdtr. Tørres, Røros f.11.3.1836, d 1932. (spouse of Ingebret Mikkelsen, f. 14.10.1845. g.13.7.1874)??
Again, I understand Ingeborg is first name, Olsdatter is last name, and I presume Tørres, Røros is the location of where she's from? Please correct me if I am mistaken!


I truly appreciate your assistance! My lack of knowledge of the Norwegian language is an obstacle for my search, and your assistance is invaluable!
