Hi
Arbeidsmand (laborer) is correct. The other word is the name of their farm. It think it might be an abbreviation. Looks like Br.tsbgkleven (= Bratsbergkleven).
Gjerpen church in an old stone church. Here is how it looks like now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdF9AKD1GAM&feature=youtu.be

Albert, the third child, married Christine Marie Simpson (1844-1940). Halvor (1832 Jul 26- ) https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/1366/8840/51 Harvey [Halvor] (1835 Jun 19 -1864 Oct 11 ), enlisted 1861 15th WI infantry, died an Andersonville prisoner of war at Camp Sumpter. https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/7796/39055/9 source, Erick (1837 Jul 23- died in Wisconsin about 1846. https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/7796/39055/25 Mary, wife of Hans Jacob Anderson of Portland OR.

1. The child Inger Amalia born April 11 1844 to Halvor Engebretsen and Severine Olsdtr.
2. Halvor Engebretsen with wife, Anne Marie Eriksdtr, and children left Gjerpen for America 3 May 1843.
So NO, a child born in Gjerpen 11 months after #2 had left for America is NOT likely to be the same man but merely another individual who happens to have the same name. |
