I am wondering if there is any information on these farms.
I have Gjert Kristoffersen born at Nostbakken in 1818 but in 1865 census he, his wife and daughter (son-in-law) live at Egeland. His wife Gonhild Helgesdatter is born at Egeland in 1816.
It seems Gjert and Gonhild had only one child but am not sure.
Any assistance with this family and/or farms would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely

Thanks Hilde,
I have that information and am trying to go farther back in time. Because there is such a gap between the 1801 and 1865 census, I suppose the Bygdebok would be my only chance of finding information on these farms. Do you know if there is such a book for Findaas or Moster area? Not sure how to delineate the separation of the two.
