- the marriage record is #38. Elen Mortensdatter, Fjesethplads, 26 years old in 1861 and her father was Morten Olsen.
That's it! So 9 Elen Mortensdatter was indeed sister to 10 Ole, and their children 3 and 4 (first cousins) married. Yikes, this pedigree just collapsed. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedigree_collapse
