Salmund in 1801

Help finding his birth/baptism record. I shouldn't be that hard as there are plenty of records in the time frame but I have had no luck so far. Can anyone see some clues in that will help. #18 is a marriage record from 1790

Not all were recorded, some were forgotten, perhap Salmund Nielsen Stenseth was one of them.

The first child, Jacobina Paulina, was born at Wiigholm and baptized July 11 1790, see 4th record in far right column.

I have found the five in the 1801 as well as three others including Andrine third from top far left column. She is a 3GGM. The brother Neils, 4 years old in the 1801, married Anne Ottosd and her parents, Otto Rasmussen and Anne Beathe Nicolaisd are the ones we have been digging out in the earlier post about "marriage date". I have been able to find lots of people all around this family but nothing on Salmund yet and it is frustrating and odd since the records from the time period are plentiful. Does the Stenseth farm? have any possibilities. Thanks for the find on Inger Olds - I had found that earlier as well and her parents Ole and Birthe Paalsd. Also a second husband for Inger Olsd - Anders Jensen - and an earlier wife for Ole Sivertsen (with forum help) - Inger Abrahamsd who died in childbirth. Now to find Salmund and his parents.

I understand that Salmund may have just been lost and it is looking somewhat likely. However, I would like to look at any possibility that his record may be in another parish. I do not know the geography or politics of the area so would not know if it was even possible that this would have happened but some of you may. In looking at the earlier record posted for Jacobina's birth, I would appreciate it if someone would translate the entire record for me. There are items in there that I do not understand such as the word Mad: and I may be not recognizing some information because of it.

Mad: Jacobina Luth (Boldt) - the wife of an earlier tradesman, now farmer - Mad short for Madame/mademoiselle.

The family name Bolt was a noble family in Norway in the middle-age.

The Luth/Ludt family came probably to Norway from Germany, Edvard Luth born in Bremen settled down in Bergen town in the mid. 1600s.
The Luth family belonged to the middle class.

Thank you for the information. I don't understand where the Bol(d)t reference comes from - what shows you that in the record? Also, would you please translate out the entire record - word for word - so I may start to understand what all the other words mean beyond the names. I am still trying to see if there is a connection of some kind that links Salmund Nielsen to Kristen (Christine) ( Kristi) Nielsd so I may be able to determine that Kristen's father is also Salmund's father. One thing that has shown up as a common item in 2 child birth records of Kristen and 1 of Salmund's is the name of Margrethe Olsd as a witness, which is the name of a sister of Salmund's wife, Inger Olsd

Thanks - what does the "bg" after Luth mean? Nothing seems to be getting me any closer to figuring out parents for Salmund.
Also, when I look at the marriage record - #18 it seems to say "Steensoth" after Salmund's name. Is this definitely the same as Stenseth?

Marriage record farm should be read Steensæth = Stenseth.
Could also be written Steinsædt as in the
1801 census.
Salmonds parents could be Niels Olesen and Magnild Nielsdatter in this census record.

Steenseth doesn't seem to exist anymore in 1801 - any info on what name it may have in 1801?

Salmund was perhaps from another parish.
Most of the Stenseth farms are located to eastern Norway, Buskerud. Hedmark and Oppland counties, but also a farm north of Borgund at the west coast in Høylandet municipality, Sør-Trøndelag county, not recorded in the 1801 census, various spellings for Stenseth, Høylandet in 16- and 1700s, note Steinsætre.
