peder rasmusen family
jjHi! Sometimes I don't know where my head is!!!I was asking about when this family,other than Rasmus,was born.I can figure out the years,pretty much,but wonder how to learn the month and day.Also,info on when Peder and Marit were married and what town.Had they any children other than the 3 mentioned.I was told there was/is a town named Tynset....and,this where the surname Tonseth/Tonset came from,that Peder took on here in the States.How would I go about finding if there are any relatives living in Norway?Full of questions,aren't I?(ha/ha)I want you all to know,this site is the VERY BEST and you all are GREAT!!!!!Many Thanks!!

BorgeThey are in the 1865 census at Tønset in Hedemark. http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=arkivverket/ft1865/F60437&variabel=0&postnr=2765&fulle=true&spraak=e They were living on a small farm called Sørmoen Misalmoen in Faaset district. Peder was born at Tønsets Prgj, Marit Olsdatter his wife was born at Vaage Prgj., anfd their only child at the time of the census, Rasmus Pedersen, was born at Tønset Prgj. (Prgj.= parish). Maybe your next step should be to check if they are recorded in any bygdebooks? It might be a good idea to ask the people at the library at Tynset if they can help.
