This forum is amazing.
My name is Carl Johnson and I am in my 50's and just now starting to trace back a Norwegian heritage I did not know I have.
My maternal Grandfather was born in Bellingham, Washington USA
I found his Grand parents in the 1865 census but since I cannot read
Norwegian very well, I could not be sure I found the correct
Lars Larsen birth record in 1814 page 47 right side

http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_side=47&show=3&uid=88396&urnread_imagesize=gigant&hode=nei&ls=1
and the correct
Ingeborg
Larsdatter in 1831 page 92 #140

http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_side=92&show=408&uid=89065&urnread_imagesize=gigant&hode=nei&ls=1

I apologize if the links do not work properly, but the page information
is correct.
I truly would appreciate any help in making sense of this old world
style and language and mostly about the families before or after
these entries
thank you so much!
Carl (Johannson) Johnson

These parish register links don't work. The address you need to copy is the permanent page link which can be found at the top of the image page after you selected where you want the image information to appear. Copy and paste the permanent page link. The link that appears in your browser window does not work.

The page information may be correct but there are something like 1100 Norwegian parishes and without knowing the parish name no one would search or be able to help you, unless they looked for a clue in Washington records or take a stab at every Lars Larson b 1814.

The census says he was born in Voss. (that link worked)

Widower Lars Larsen, Grane and Ingeborg Larsdatter were married July 3 1856, see record #45.
Ingeborgs father was Lars Torstensen and she was 27 years old.

The link you gave for Ingeborg says her father was Lars Olsen, she is not the one you seek then.

Your Ingeborg is #133 she was born Aug 28 1829, her parents were Lars Thorstensen and Ingebor Tollevsdatter, Tverberg.

This link may be of interest.

For specific words and expressions this could help
Gaardbruger og Selveier = farmer and owner of the farm
hjelper Faderen med Gaardsbr = helps his father with farmwork
hjelper Moderen med Husvæsenet = helps her mother in the house
hans Kone = his wife
deres søn = their son
deres datter = their daughter
prgj (prestegjeld) = parish

for other needs please copy expressions.

Lars Larsens father was said to be Lars Johnsen. The one you seek is next to the last record on left page. He was born Nov 13 1816, baptized Jan 1 1817. His parents were Lars Johnsen and Ingebor Nielsdatter.

I guess I am not very good at following my ancestors names in these records. I looked at the links you gave to me, and I am amazed you were able to make sense of them. Who are those additional names included in Lars Johnsen's birth? http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=11770&idx_id=11770&uid=ny&idx_side=-95
I was unable to find any more information on Lars Johnsen's wife, the mother of Lars Larsen Graue. Nor was I able to follow back on the eldest Lars Larsen or his wife Ingebor Nielsdatter.

I also came to a dead end on the Lars Thorstensen-Ingebor Tolevsdatter, Tverberg parents of Ingeborg Larsdatter born 8/28/1829

I have done well in tracing my Swedish-Danish-Northern German heritage back 5+ generations, but here in Norway I just am stuck.
Any additional help you can give me is appreciated.
Thank You, Carl--

What the additional names are in the baptismal records are faddernes, witnesses or godparents to the child or to the baptism. Who they are might be neighbors, friends, relatives or just folks who happened to be at the church the day the baptism was performed.

That is what I thought but I was hoping it might also be parents or grandparents. Do you think these names could help my research or just frustrate them?

You are welcome.
Vossaboki online by Stefan Ullstad
Enter volume 3, in alphabetical order enter Tverberg, the photo is from 1936.
Tverberg is first mentioned 1611 as Tuerberg.
Tver- means across and -berg a small mountain or rock, a mountain/rock that lies across.

On the same page in volume 3 you will find Mæringi, includes a photo, that Lars Thorstensen Tverberg changed with Samson Persen in 1832, spelled Mæringen 1723.
The origin of the name is unknown,
Mære; border between farms
Mærdi, fish trap
Mærr, grand and great.

Lars Thorstensen was married 3 times, 2. times as widower;
1816 with Ingeborg Tollevsdatter/Thorleivsdatter Grauo, 1859 to widow Ranveig Olavsdatter from Tungeteigen and in 1869 to Brita Thorbjørnsdatter Rene

wonderful, Thank you.
one thing that is confusing for me is "Lars Thorstensen changed with
Samson Persen in 1832" What does "changed" mean? Does it mean purchaced?

Thank you again

Carl
