I am looking for information on the parents of my great grandmother Karen Paulsdatter, born 25 Apr 1831. She married Mikkel Jenssen 1 Nov 1854 (records in Furnes in Vang Ministerialbok nr 10). The records show her father as Paul Erikson, but no name or information on her mother. I have not been able to find anything else. Would also be interested in any siblings of Karen.

Thank you for any help you can give.

Is # 146 the birth of Karen? Is so, Karie Larsd. (above) may be her mother on the 1865 census.

Karens parents Poul Erichsen and Kari Larsdatter were married April 2 1823, see #7 Poul Erichsen was a widower 48 years and Kari was 31 years.
Poul Erichsen was baptized April 23 1769, see top of left page his parents were Erich Poulsen, Wold and Mari Olsdatter.
The 1801 census gives his first wife Berte Jonsdatter and their children. Poul and Berte were married Nov 14 1793, see 5th record from bottom of right page

Thank you to all who replied. This has cleared up some of my questions and added siblings.

I would also like to find any siblings of Mikkel Jenssen, born 4 May 1824 in Furnes Parish, if that's possible.

The reason the siblings are so important is that Mikkel and Karen and all of their children, including my grandmother Mina ,emigrated, leaving no one in Norway. My sister and I are traveling to Norway in July and wonder if there are some family lines still there.
