With this Translater
You can read what "Store Norske Leksikon" Norways major Lexicon tells about Philippus Erlendson Losna

The mediveal word Fehirde means Treasurer, the kings treasurer.
His son Erlend Philippuson Losna was "Riksråd" the kings advicer and treasurer.

More on Losna later.

You are welcome.
Two main source, a question in DIS-Norge, Norways largest history assosiation reg. Kirsti Larsdotter in this forum and Ættarbok for Granvin published 1975, not online.

Losna info. includes Losna Ættas coat of arms, published by NRK, district Sogn & Fjordane is the main broadcasting company in Norway.
It contains a huge amount of info, Google translater works well
The question is; Where did the Losna family come from?
A theory; Local historians believe that after the battle of Fimreite 1184 King Sverre appointed a person from the St. Clair family from Færøyene where Sverre grew up.
The St. Clairs had the same coat of arms as the losna family, link
I wonder if the origin of St. Clair is Scotish for Sinclair?

There are indicationa that the losna family died in the male line late in the 1400s and that it was the woman who led the species.

Erlend Eindrideson Losna was so rich that the king borrowed money from him in 1450.

I like to work with old documents
There are more than 19000 documents up to 1570 online in Diplomatarium Norwegicum published by the U. of Oslo and 7 volumes, 9000 documents unfinished in Regesta.

Before the Reformation 1536 Norway was a catholic country and the biggest landowner was the Catholic church.
People who could afford it gave a part of a farm or an entire farm to the church as a "gift" just to be mentioned by name and bede for the soul in the first servant of God after their own funeral.

Shortly before 1400.
Gift from Erlend Filippusson Losna to Nidaros (Trondheim) bishopric.
He gives the whole farm Gjemmestad in Gloppen, Nordfjord, the value of 20 "Månedsmatsmål" (Adequate value in butter and grain to feed a man in 20 months)
Erlend Losna died 1407, link

After the reformation the king took all the farms.

You must like doing research on old documents,
because you are very good at it

You are like a detective or an investigator because you
piece together the story of life.

Research is only fun when it comes to life!

And you have made it come to life

Thank you again-

Carl

To find the correct connection between Lars Nilsen Næs and Spildo and Fillippus Erlendson Lodensen and Losna is difficult. I can not guarantee the authenticity of this family tree as long the sources are not listed, but you can keep it for a more detailed investigation

I only use the lineage, the anual figurs vary somewhat and are omitted, it goes like this;
Lars Nilsen Spildo 1635-1717.
Father ; Nils Brynjelsen Næs
Father Brynjel Sjursen Næs
Mother Magdalena Samsonsdatter Ling
Father Samson Fartegnson Linga
Father Fartegn Matson Bagge-Seim-Ænes
Mother Anna the elder Fartegnsdater Semeleng-Losna
Father Fartegn Fillippusson the younger Losna
Father Fillippus Fartegnson Losna
Father Fartegn the elder Fillippusson Losna
Father Fillippus Erlendson Odensland-Losna
Father Erlend Fillippuson Losna
Father Fillippus Losna.

The same here for Fillippus Erlendson Odinsland and Losna , lots of info but no sources, St. Clair is mentioned, link

Again it seems you have been very busy while I rested at night!

I am just now going to go through all this new info-

Thank you for noting the lack of paper documents.
I know, just by seeing how you work through information,
a trail of evidence is important to you.

It is also important to me.

As I begin to go through this new
information, I again want you to know how much I appreciate
all this work you are doing!

Thank you.

Carl
