I am trying to confirm the parents of my 5x great grandfather, Anders Bekkedal. I have evidence supporting both Larsen and Jonsen as surnames, and I don’t know which to believe. In my tree, I currently have him down as Anders Larsen, born 3 Feb 1760 in Rissa, Sor Trondelag, and dying 5 Apr 1837 in Lensvik, Sor Trondelag. His wife was Else Jensdatter Singstad(skalet), born 17 Dec 1786 in Stadsbygd, Sor Trondelag, and dying 4 Mar 1840 in Lensvik, Sor Trondelag. Else’s family is not a mystery, but I am unable to find her and Ander’s marriage record. Although, I do have the birth record of their son, my 4x great grandfather, Arnt Andersen Bekkedal/Krognes. Born 29 Apr 1807 in Rissa and dying on 31 Jan 1894 also in Rissa. Thanks for any help you can give, this is a tough problem for me and my research.
