There are several Family Trees that take this family back further in time in this fashion but there is a lack of sources that I can find,. Perhaps a Bygedbok was used to determine the Tree. Here is what the line looks like.

Vetle Olsson Boen
BIRTH: 1727 • Tinn, Telemark, Norway
DEATH: 1789 • Tinn, Telemark, Norway

Ole Jonson Bøen
BIRTH: 1681 • Tinn, Telemark, Norway
DEATH: 1766 • Tinn, Telemark, Norway

Jon Olsson Sonstebo
BIRTH: 1660 • Tinn, Telemark, Norway
DEATH: 1725 • Sønstebø, Tinn, Telemark, Norway
