Hans Thoresen was born Sept 26 and baptized Oct 5 1817, see record #58. He was born out of wedlock, his mother was Inge Hansdatter, Leuften and his father Thorer Nielsen, Brotnov-eie.

Parish records for Marthe Cathrine Olsdatter are not available, - Eidsvold parish records were destroyed in a fire for the periode in question.

Hans Thoresen´s father was from Brotnov-eie, a subfarm under Brotvov and his mother was from Leusten-eie, a subfarm under Leusten.

The ending -eie means owned by.

Hans Thoresen was confirmated 1832 living on Leusten-eie, his lastname was written Tholsen, Hans Tholsen, and his fathers firstname Thol instead of Thorer, see right page #21

Photo of Brotnov main farm, see here

The name Brotnov comes from the old word brotinn, an ancient burial mound looted.
The largest burial mound in N. Europe, "Raknehaugen" Raknis Mound is in Ullensaker.

Well that was fantastic reading about Raknis Mound its like being in Egypt you are so lucky having all that history in your back yard this country of Australia is only 200 years, your old the Churches and Castles what else is there, I will get on to Google Earth and have a good look and dream about being in Norway. Hans Thorsen confimation in 1832 is pretty hard to read but I finally found it, the name Thol doesn't really matter does it?
Brotnov Farm my goodness it is a huge barn it looked like and Army Shed.
What I need to find now is a very clear map of Norway so I can put it with the family tree even put it on the front of the book. I will have a book after all the info you great people have sent me at least now I have an answer to my question When was he born and where did my great grand father live I think I have the answer now and I will keep looking for things, I still do not know what ship Carl took to get out here may be I will never now. I have started to look for the desendance of Ole Theodore here in Sydney. I did write a an e-mail to Dianne Bates but she might not get it because she might not be a member of Ancestry.com anymore I will try to do a search for her now I have put all this together.
If you come up with any more things I would be very gratful.
Thank you Regards Robyn

- just nit-picking, census for Ullensaker say Leuften as the name of the farm.

Hi.
There were no rules for how a name was written, the priest wrote as he heard the name was pronounced.
An ordinary name as John was also written Jon, Joen, Ion.
There were no Thol in Ullensaker to my knowledge, the 1801 census has only Thore or Thorer .
Thol Nielsen was Thorer Nielsen.

Archaeology is interesting in Norway, some findings are thousands of years old.

I was hoping to find a familytree or similar information.

Australia is one of the farthest inhabited areas from Norway, N. Zealand is actually on the opposite side of the globe from Norway.

If I find some of interest I will share it with you.

I hope that someone in Norway is tracing this tree I know it would help complete their tree knowing where the three boys are. I have the same here with Carl he has spelt his name Karl Hanson Charles Hansen you just have to take all names and record it until there is more proof even the names of places is different.
During tracking Carl done here in NSW there is thousands of men from Norway I help a society of people transcribing the old shipping records because in about 20 years when us oldies (HA HA) have died off the next Gen will not be able to read the old quil writing and doing that there is approx 2 to 3 men on board every ship are Denmark and Norway sailors. If you or any body needs help with anything over here I would love to give you a hand and help I have lots of Cd's on BDM in Victoria, NSW, Western Australia, Queensland and Tasmania.
keep looking Ta,
Kind regards Robyn

Let´s hope someone in Norway are looking into this topic.

The distance from Hovin church to Akershus Fortress, ca 50 kilometer.

Some links are only in Norwegian, I can send you a good Norwegian-American dictionary ment for the "old" 1800 language and a modern translater later today.
