I have some confusion about Brita(Britha) Johannesdtr. Possibly these are 2 different people. In the 1801 census, Britha is listed as 79 years old if I am looking at this right. I think she is the wife of Siur Johannesen. He also is 79. In the Bygdebok for Sogndal, Bruk l ca. 1750-1771 page 20. To me it appears that Brita(Britha) was born in 1712. This is a 10 year age difference from the 1801 census. In the Bygdebok, Siur is listed as being born in 1723. I tried to find Brita in the Archives to verify correct birth date but couldn't find her. Perhaps someone could let me know the correct birthdate for Brita.

Thank you.

I am working on Brita Johannesdotter and have recorded her birth information. I have not been able to read who her parents were. Would really appreciate it if someone could take a look at this record and see if they can tell who her parents were. Thanks.

Britha died on Reppen 1805, buried April 22 age 83, se last posting 1. page link
This match the 1801 census, born ca 1722, perhaps Britha b. 1712 died young, but the records for 1722 do not exist.
Look for her confirmation record.

Sjur died on Reppen 1804, buried April 6. age 81,5.

The parents of Brite Johansdatter (Britha Johannesdatter) were engaged Jan 13 1709, at Stedie.
Parents names recorded as:
Johans Monsen, Repen and Ragnilde Germundsdatter.

Jan 13 1710 they baptized their first child, Larts, next to last record on left page.

Mogensen/Monsen, various spellings, this has been discussed earlier in another topic.

I wonder if Ragnhild Germundsdatter died before 1733.

Johanns Mogensen was not a bachelor, civil staus; Vid.

Johannes Mogensen Reppen married Ursula Erichsdatter Hyldeskaar June 24. 1733.
"Caut" Witnesses; Ole Giestesen Reppen and Johannes Baardsen Rĝseland.
The engaged couple visited the church 3. times before they married on June 24 (Mid summer-day);
Mai 3. Mai 10, and Mai 14.
See on top left page and on top right page, link

Kare - I will have to see if I can find her death in the Digital Archives. Would it be unusual
for a man to remarry that soon after the death of his wife in she did die in 1733? It wasn't long after death then that he and Ursula made their first stop at the church.

Sorry if I confused you.
She died before 1833, I would start to search the 1732 records and move backwards from there.

Kare - I think this is her death in Jan 1733. I don't know the date for sure. Possibly the 6th.
If you get a chance see what you think. Thanks for your help.

Kare- I looked at the probate. I have to go to Madison, WI to the Norwegian Genealogy Center and Naeseth Library. I am sure someone there can translate it for me. Looks like a real challenge. Thanks for the info. And for confirming the birthdate of Ragnild for me.
