Hmmm...., we're getting closer...
Here is Jacob Dahl (Arlene Dahl's paternal g.father) in census-1865 for Bakke, Vest-Agder... the same place as the Modahl family...
The Dahl (Øxendal) family emigrated about 1867, and can be found in Lucas, Lyon, Minnesota in census-1880.

I think this could be the connection:

Tonnette Larsdatter Modal, parents: Lars A. Sigbjørnsen Modal & Berte Torkildsdatter Modal
Lars A. Sigbjørnsen Modal, parents: Sigbjørn Sigbjørnsen & Siri Pedersd.

Arlene Dahl, parents Rudolph Dahl & Ingeborg Swan
Rudolph S Dahl, parents Jacob H Dahl & Ingeborg Dahl
Jacob H Dahl, parents Hans Pedersen Øxendal & Anne Olsdatter

I think Hans Pedersen & Siri Pedersdatter could be siblings.
Hans is born about 1816 in Bakke parish. Siri is born ab. 1818, same place.

Hans Pedersen Øxendal - Siri Pedersdatter - siblings
Jacob Dahl - Lars Sigbjørnsen Modal - first cousin
Rudolph Dahl - Tonnette Larsdatter Modal - second cousins
Arlene Dahl - children of Tonette Modahl - third cousins

And I think this confirms my theory:
Hans; #5
Siri, #4, right page

Parents: Peer Hansen & Karen Larsdatter, Øxendal

Yes, now that we know enough we can find that others have also developed the family tree. The Bergelin/Gryde Family Trees among others on Ancestry.com lists the mother and father as Peter Hansen Oksendal and Karen Larsdatter Espetveit. The Tree also has a large number of other children other than Hans and Siri. The Tree also carries the family line further back in time for Karen Larsdatter Espetveit.
