so many with same name I guess.... maybe the servant girl was not same Inge as my grandmother then? thought the Ingeborg born in 1857 was her mother? were there possibly some errors on census reports?

Inger was employeed or worked for her brother/parents as "Tjenestepige".
The word "Tjenestepige" is often translated to Servant girl, maybe another more nuanced than the word servant can be used.
The word "Tjene" mean to serve, work, earn and has been used on people who worked on farms in all times and was not a demeaning/degrading word, still exist colloquially.

Inger was "Tjenestepige" a housemaid, often translated to servant girl.

ok, I guess "servant" was a common job title back then. I'm stll trying to figure out who Ingebjørg b. 1857, who married 1879 to Olav Knutson Rokne? Is she Inger's sister or mother or someone else, and is Rokne a farm name, and is it another spelling for Rodde? (could she have been "another Ingeborg" from Lars Torkelssens Rodde farm)... or was there possibly some error in dates in the census reports?

my grandmother would be Inger Endersdatter born 3 Sept. 1876... and Lars Torkelssen was born July 1868.

- information in Vossaboki says she is Ingers (Ingjerds) sister.
Here is the proof:
Ingebjørg (= Ingeborg) was born Dec 10 1857, see #11, parents Endre Eriksen, Gjerald and Ingeborg (= Ingebjørg) Eriksdatter.
She married Ole (= Olav) Knutsen (= Knutson), Rokne May 27 1879, see #6.
Rokne is a farmname.

Anna b. 1867, married 1893 to Per Knutson Jerald,
Marta b. 1869, married 1902 to Olav Klasson Vele,
Brita b. 1871,
Eirik b. 1874 and
Inger (named Ingjerd) b. 1876.

ok, thought I knew all I needed about grandmother Inger, but who was Per Knutson Jerald who her sister Anna married, as that was her last name also (farm), or was there another Jerald family?

There was one main farm, Gjerald (nr 215) and this farm was subdivided into 7 smaller farms (Bruksnr.) - see 1900.
The Rødde farm was devided in two (bruksnr.) in 1900.
