I've been researching the Norwegian branch of my family tree and believe I have found the marriage record of my 3x great grandparents. However, I'm not totally sure as there are portions of the record I cannot read or translate by myself.
I'm am looking at entry 47, where I think it lists the husband as Hans Markussen and the bride as Karen Christoffersdatter
https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/5885/277
I am also wondering if there would be 2 records for the same marriage, seeing as I've also found another record with what looks like the same names, but not as much information is given in this second record (entry 35 in the second link)
https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/7758/108
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you  |

Hard to read the exact date, but probably 29 Dec 1874? It's the same marriage in both links.
His father is Markus Olsen Wefferstad-eie
Her father is Kristoffer Knudsen Ĝxnevold-eie
The first record is written by the priest himself - Parish register (official).
The second record is writthen by his assistant - Parish register (copy). |

Sub-farm Wefferstad-eie, -eie means owned by.
Markus Olsen and Elisabeth Caspersdatter cultivated the farm from 1835. Another name of the farm was Roaldsrud, named after the first settler, Roald Olsen b. ca 1650 |

Owners of the farm Marcus Olsen hired was Torger Ellingsen and his son Elling Torgersen. Marcus Olsen owned the houses but leased the land. It was always set up a contract with rights and obligations for both. If he could hire better land he could, if he did not get a fair price, take the houses with him
The feed had to be paid within new year.

Sorry to ask again. I've been looking for Marcus Olsen's baptism record. The only one I've found so far looks like it could say either Marcus or Marius. I was just wondering if this could be the right record. Thank you in advance.

| On the left page of the link you shared for Marcus' birth/baptism record there is another example of that writer putting a circle over the lower case c; in the list of witnesses/sponsors for entry #65. I didn't spot any letter i dotted with a circle by that writer. |
