For that you need another record, perhaps the marriage record of Elen and Sivert. I couldn't find it, but hoped you or another researcher might find it.
- 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.
