Parents of #32 Inger Amalia, I read Halvor Engebretsen and Severine Olsdatter, but I read with uncertainty the two other words Arbeidsmand (laborer) and Brdsbghlsven ???

Hi

Arbeidsmand (laborer) is correct.
The other word is the name of their farm.
It think it might be an abbreviation. Looks like Br.tsbgkleven (= Bratsbergkleven).

Gjerpen church in an old stone church. Here is how it looks like now:

1. The child Inger Amalia born April 11 1844 to Halvor Engebretsen and Severine Olsdtr.

2. Halvor Engebretsen with wife, Anne Marie Eriksdtr, and children left Gjerpen for America 3 May 1843.

So NO, a child born in Gjerpen 11 months after #2 had left for America is NOT likely to be the same man but merely another individual who happens to have the same name.
