Hello,

In the 1865 and 1900 census I find "Efjestad" in Hå / Verhaug. Is this farm or
community now called "Ævestad"?

Thanks,

Brian

Yes, it is the same farm name, also written like that in 1910 census, in the "The Land register draft of 1950" it says Ævestad as farm name and the people used Efjestad as surname.

Here is from 'Oluf Rygh':

The Land register 1950 (not completed):

Good luck!
