| Many thanks for all the responses on Gaard family. Reinert emigrated to America and settled in South Dakota. I will have to try and see what the church records at Lake Preston, South Dakota, show for his birthdate. I appreciate everyone's time! |

| Thank you, lyndal40, for this information. I really wonder where the 2nd Reinert, supposedly born in November 1852, came into this picture. I think we can eliminate him completely. Many, many thanks! |

| I am writing up the history and memories of the Gaard/Larsen families (my grandparents). Could I get some help on a couple of dates? I need clarification? I have 3 generations of Rasmus Rasmusson's beginning with Rasmus Rasmusson born in 1699 in Espeland, Hjelmeland, Rogaland, Norway. I have him as dying in 1779 in Ladstein Indre, Finnoy. I have his wife as Kirsti Ivarsdotter born 1704 in Flat-Hetland, Fister, Rogaland and dying December 1767 in Landstein Indre, Finnoy, Rogaland. I have their son as Rasmus Rasmusson born 1739 in Flat-Hetland, Fister, Rogaland, married on Nov 27 , 1761 but I do not know when he died. Is this the Rasmus that died in 1791 in Gaard, Finnoy, Rogaland? I have his son Rasmus Rasmusson being born in 1765 in Landstsein Ytre, Finnoy, Rogaland but I do not know when he died. This Rasmus I have married to Ingeborg Rasmusdotter (I can't believe the number of Rasmus's) and have her death at Finnestad, Hetland, Rogaland but no date. As has been stated before, I can't rely on Ancestry.com's dates as fact. Uff, I need to get this done! Many thanks! |

Here is a Family Tree on Geni.com for the family of Rasmus Rasmusson born 1699. The tree seems to indicate the source used for the data. As usual you must use online family trees with some care.
https://www.geni.com/people/Rasmus-Rasmusson/6000000005609278514
And not to surprising for Geni.com here is a completely separate tree with many of the same people in it. In a perfect world someone famiiar with Geni.com and with this family would have merged these two trees into one tree. However before merging the trees, someone would have to sort out the differences from one tree to the other. One tree has a 1739 birth year for the son Rasmus Rasmussson Indre Ladstein and the other has a 1748 birth year for Rasmus Rasmusson Ladstein (Rasmusson. These seem to be the same person but the two trees give slightly different first names to this person wife. The trees also differ in some of the data on the parents of the wife, same father but different mothers.
https://www.geni.com/people/Rasmus-Indre-Ladstein/6000000005049030292?through=6000000005049030302
And another one without sources.
http://youronlineroots.com/www.php?bla_id=20172&bredde=1600
It probably would help your confidence level in your tree if you were able to use Bygdebĝker to pin down the dates and relationships.
So you can see how just using online tree data wll lead to great confusin.

Rasmus Rasmusson born in 1699 in Espeland, Hjelmeland, Rogaland, Norway.
In the bygdebok for Espeland his birth year is not indicated. However when he was at Ladstein (1755 - 1771) he was told to be 59 years in 1758.
His parents were Rasmus Sveinson (b. approx 1656 at N. Fevold) and Brita Rasmusdatter. |

| Thank you to all who helped clear this up for me.. I would love to read the history of Gaard in Talgje. But, of course, it would need to be in English. |

| The only couple that I don't have death records for are Rasmus Rasmusson born in 1765 in Ladstein Ytre and his wife Ingeborg Rasmusdotter who was born in Gaard, Talgje in 1775. Thank you all for your help! |

| I am quite confused at this point! While checking info on "Geni" I found Rasmus Rasmusson (b. 1699 - d. 1779) and his wife Kirsti Ivarsdotter (b. 1704 - d. 1767). In my info I show a son born to them as Rasmus Rasmusson born 1739 (as stated before). In the "Geni" it shows a son born 1748. It lists his wife as Ingeborg Knutsdotter and my record shows Rasmus married to Martha Knutsdotter. Am I on the right lineage? My g-grandfather was Tollak Gaard, son of Knud Rasmusson Gaard. My pedigree chart shows his male ancestors for 3 generations as Rasmus Rasmusson. Maybe I'm going too deep on this but I do want the right person and dates to be fact. Again, thanks for your time and effort! |
