Beret Olsdatter married Even Olsen 09 Dec 1804

Hello,

I am trying to find my 5th great grandmother Beret Olsdaatter in the 1801 census and then hopefully find her parents. I know that she married Even Olsen on 09 Dec 1804.

Oppland county, Aurdal, Parish register (official) nr. 7 (1800-1808), Marriage records 1805, page 88. http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... x_side=-93

They are the couple at the top of the page to the right.

From there, I looked at the 1801 census for Ourdahl to see if I could find her. Since the 1801 census was only a couple years before her marriage, I hoped to find the same farm listed in her marriage record. I can't read the marriage record very well, but I think it says she is from Wold. Is this right?

Here is a link to all the Beret/Berit Olsdatters in Ourdahl in the 1801 census:

Of the 32 candidates in the 1801 census for Ourdahl, it looks like six of them could be possibles. Based on what you see in the marriage record, can you tell which of these Beret Olsdatters from the 1801 census is my 5th great grandmother?

The only other record I have is for the birth of their first child - Anne. She was born out of wedlock and baptized 10 May 1804.

Oppland county, Aurdal, Parish register (official) nr. 7 (1800-1808), Births and baptisms out of wedlock 1801-1804, page 79. http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?i ... x_side=-83

The image attached to this post is that six Beret/Berit Olsdatters in the Aurdal 1801 census. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated.

It is probably the one called Brit in 1801 census. ( she is also called " stepson" by a mistake here, - she is stepdaughter to Christofer Christofersen. His wife Joran Arnesdatter has been married once before. And Arne Vold is one if the best men when Beret and Ole marries, - he might be a brother.

Thank you, Linda. This looks like the right person. From there, I found her baptism record and father's name. Thanks again!
