Thanks, looks promising. I'd like to see some connection through the birth records of the children. |

Well, biographical data on the parents generally didn't become part of the baptismal records of their children until much later in the 1800s.
Sometimes, if parents followed the naming customs in vogue in Europe and Norway, the first names of the oldest children might reflect parental first names of the parents. But that works only if the parents practiced the customs and you have a "full count" on the children.
Either way, it would probably be more effective to follow Vivi's lead and use the direct facts recorded about the woman herself (approximate birth year, and birthplace) to take you to her parentage. |

Thank you for the above work. I believe this is the correct record.What is the word just below the date in the record : https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/kb20061019040350 Gunnild - third down on left. Word looks like Herl ? What does that mean ? Also in vivi's reply above there is a link posted regarding the death record but it takes me to a search page and I do not know where to go to access the actual death record if anyone has help on that |

Sheesh, didn't you look at Vivi's post 5 years ago? Most likely its a transcribed record as the parish register addresses have little bit different appearance. But I guess it could be anything. Will have to wait for Vivi to see if she remembers.
Apparently more than one parish's records are in the set. So this maybe? "Hærland, a village in Eidsberg, Norway"
Google finds Hærland in Østfold near to Sweden.

This is the 1865 Census Record that Vivi cited.

It says: "The husband said she was born on the border between Norway and Sweden. He could not tell exactly where." |

Hi

Herl. probably is short for Herland (Hærland) - a sub-parish in Eidsberg.
