In documenting some records, I have found some records for children included in one of my ancestral families that do not have a record in the registers (Asker) that all the other events are found in - births, marriages, subsequent children and deaths. The source information used by the posters of these records are pretty sparse but in an effort to see if these records may be legitimate, I would like to know if any of the following names can be connected to a parish register for further review : Breuua or Brenna - I find no parish but perhaps a farm - if so what parish would it be in ?
Isi, Vestre Baerum - a farm ? Vestre Baerum is together with Asker throughout the time I am reviewing but I find no record in the register for the date that the poster is claiming. Perhaps some other parish ?
I tend to doubt these records as everything that happened to these people including parents and 5 children and the grandparents as well as most everything that happened to the children as they raised families is right there in Asker. I realize errors and oversights happen but it seems a stretch to have missed 3 children in the registers who happen to have outlier home information. Any insight is welcome.

Isi is listed as a property in Asker and Bærum throughout many of the censuses. You can search for property names in Norwegian censuses here: https://www.digitalarkivet.no/en/search/properties and here : https://www.dokpro.uio.no/rygh_ng/rygh_form.html

Which posters have posted dates here that you haven't found to be correct?

Thank you. These resources will be helpful.

As to the other posters, my reference is to people posting records to Family Search trees. At times, these record additions have no source information and the events can not be verified from actual parish records.

There might be a logical reason for the discrepancies you've noted. Put in some links to trees and have the forum take a look.

Thanks, I'm interested in the truth whatever it may be.
