1865 Census

http://www.rhd.uit.no/folketellinger/ftliste_e.aspx?ft=1865&knr=1625&kenr=010&bnr=0049&lnr=000

The only connection I can see between this person and the Rusten mentioned in the death record for Berit Halseth is this reference to Rissa in the birth location

"Born and baptised - Stadsbygd, Rissa sokn"

Some information can be gleaned from an unrelated 2007 post from Norway Heritage

http://www.norwayheritage.com/snitz/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=3208

From Kåre

"Bustad/Place of living: Ritsen, a local parish in Statsbygd main parish in Sør-Trøndelag county not fare from Trondheim"

And from Jan Peter

"This Enebakken farm is located in Rissa, Sør Trøndelag. Anthon Ellevsen (2) is living there together with parents and 9 siblings.
(Rissa = "Ritsen""
