Hi.
I think Leversen was Levorsen in Norway.

The Levor name sounds immediately coming from the two counties Buskerud and Telemark, it can of course be a blind track.

The boy Jo Anne Sadler found in the 1865 census for Eidanger (Telemark), see above, was b. Oct. 13. 1858, christened Martinus Levorsen Nov. 28.
Parents: Levor Christiansen and Nicoline Nielsdatter.

Both of the Martinius Levorsen searched here match this tip, that they likely came from Buskerud or Telemark.

For more information on the "Buskerud" person, Tolleiv Levorsen, see Flå bygdebok III page 1071 under Rydslykkja /Lykkja farm.
