he married Kari Michelsdatter and had 5 children: -Knud Knudsen b. 1787 -Michel Knudsen b. 1793 -Siri Knudsdatter b. 1794 -Barbro Knudsdatter b. 1796.06.19 -Ole Knudsen b.1798.10.20
in 1801 the whole family was in the census for Nęs.
i cannot find any information on his parents, his date of marriage or exact birthdate, however. can anyone help? thanks!
I believe Michel Knudsen was baptized March 4 1792, see #40, his parents are stated as Stengrim Knudsen (should have been Knud Knudsen) and Kari Michelsdatter, however in the 1801 census Stengrims wife is Unie Halvorsdatter and it is the 1st marriage for both of them. No son Michel is listed.
Comments: Barbro Knudsdatter was baptized June 19 1796 and Ole Knudsen born at Haraldset, baptized Oct 21 1798.
Knud and Kari Haraldset baptized Ziri on the 2nd sunday after New Year 1794 (Jan 12 1794), see #33.
Parish registers for other info seems to be missing.
