                      | It would be easier if you had a parish or farm to connect him. to. In Ancesry.com for Hedmark born 1774 plus minus 2 father named Jĝrgen there is only one candidate. Here is a first guess. Being a soldier it is possible that he was born just about anywhere.

                      | Thanks Anton you are probably correct, I have no info on a farm or parish. Do you know of a way to check Norwegian Military records i haven't had
 any luck trying.

                      | One thing to look for, is the first names of Michel's sisters.  Usually the oldest daughter was named after the father's mother and the next after the mother's mother, but there are exceptions, for instance when the couple lived on the mother's farm, in which case the order may be reversed.  I find one sister, Helvig, clearly named after Berte's mother.  If you know the name of any other sister, it could be the name of Anders' mother. |

 It appears they only had one daughter Helvig same as Berte's mother
 First born was a son Jens, Berte's mother was Helvig Jensdatter

 It was a war between Denmark/Norwy and Sweden from March 1808-Dec. 1809.
 Anders Jĝrgensen was a soldier when he married Nov. 1808.
 
 Perhaps he partisipated in the 1808-09 war against Sweden

 At the baptisms of each of these children there were one or more witnesses from the farm Grinager, so there could be family connection that way.
 
 In particular, Knudt Jĝrgensen Grinager Eier is listed first among the withnesses in the first two of these baptisms.  Could this be a brother?  According to the 1801 census, he was born around 1760.  See this search for Knudt Jĝrgensen living in Grinager in Hedmark between 1790 and 1816.  And here is the search for Anders Jĝrgensen with otherwise the same parameters.

                      | Thanks ToreL I have seen the connection to the Grinager farm before but usually on the other side of the family, many of the names are the
 same. One thing I just picked up from reading the 1801 census again
 was # 13 Elie Hansdatter Konens moder ( wife's mother ). who was
 Berte's grandmother, didn't have her in tree before.
 Thanks for the help.
 There seems to be a very likely connection between Knudt and Anders.

 According to Furnes bygdebok (Norwegian IPs only)  Helvig Jensdatter was baptised Feb. 18 1759 and died Dec. 27 1832, which should make this her baptism entry.  (Sexagesima on the right.)
