Kvikne, Jon Pedersen and Karen Estensdatter married in 1750

[dn26520]

Jon Pedersen and Karen Estensdatter were married at Kvikne on 20 November 1750: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/9228/44766/123 They had a son, Peder Jonsen, baptized on 30 May 1751 at Kvikne: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/9228/44766/130 They had another son, Esten Jonsen, baptized on 20 February 1753 at Kvikne: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/9228/44766/141 and another son, Esten Jonsen, baptized on 6 April 1755 at Kvikne: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/9228/44766/163 I have been unable to find a burial record for Karen Estensdatter in the Kvikne parish records but perhaps it could have been during the gap of the Kvikne parish records from 1757-1763. There is a Jon Pedersen who was buried in Innset on 4 December 1785 at the age of 82, which could have been this Jon Pedersen’s burial record: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/9230/44774/2 Any information on this family or any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

According to Folldal bygdebok vol 1/286-87 this family moved there about 1756. Another son, Iver, was born 1757 and a daughter Ragnhild was confirmed in 1775.

Jon Pedersen was possibly from Engerdal (d before 1762) and Karen Estensd from Kvikne (Estensplass?), died/buried 9.3.1823!

Karen remarries about 1762 to Kristoffer Jakobsen (children: Jon ca 1762 and Gjertru 1764) and in 1781 to Jens Nilssen Buch (page 396).

Thank you very much for responding to my query. It was very helpful.

I see that Kari Estensdatter’s son Iver Jonsen was engaged to Ingri Pedersdatter in 1784 and at the time it lists both of their residences as Brandsnes in Nedre Folldal: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/9215/44702/13
I also have found a Randi Jonsdatter who was confirmed from Brandsnes in 1775. Could this have been the daughter of Jon Pedersen and Kari Estensdatter you refer to as Ragnild Jonsdatter?:

It would be extremely helpful and appreciated if someone could consult the Folldal bygdebok for Brandsnes in Nedre Folldal to answer these questions. Thank you.

Sorry, I referred to the wrong volume of Folldal bygdebok in the above post. The mistake is now corrected (to vol 1 pages 286-287)!

Concerning Jon Pedersen's daughter confirmed in 1775, called Ragnhild in the bygdebok, I am pretty sure she is identical to the Randi Jonsdr you found in the parish register. https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/5021/26357/2

The bygdebok page 287 also says this Ragnhild was a godmother in 1795. I found her brother Iver Jonsen baptize his son Jon/Joen in 1795. In the church register she is called Randie this time.

Why the bygdebok uses Ragnhild I can't tell.

Thank you very much for clarifying this name issue: Randi vs. Ragnild. I have never seen these names used interchangeably.
