maggiDear fruitcake! Have found your family in Høland in Akershus county, living in 1865 on the farm Østlid, and in 1875 on the farm Torp. Also have births/christenings of several family members. It's very late at night and it would take me hours to type all the information, and I'm off for a week's trip to Stockholm in a couple of days after a hectic weekend, so I suggest you send your postal address to my e-mail <magginelli@hotmail.com>, and I'll post the information I have to you. You'll be able to order microfilms from Høland if you have an LDS family history centre near you. Best wishes from Moss, Norway.
