Jan, does the Bygdebok say why they moved away from Skauen?



Not directly, but it looks like Gulbrand Nilsen and his wife Maren Hansd Falla got the opportunity to buy a farm in 1863. They moved to Romsåsenga in Ullensaker. You may want to look for them with the children Hans, Kristian and Peder in the 1865-census. Daughter Karolline died small and son Nils (b 1854) was at Sulerud in Sørum in 1865.

Your ancestors never owned Skauen, it was a cottager place under Falla and Varå Bruk. Skauen was however a large place, judging from the size of the rent. (In 1849, 4 spd)


Leaving Skaugen 1863 for Romsåsengen in Ullensaker with 4 sons, Hans, Nils, Christian and Peder, right page #9-14
