Wanda, Just some afterthoughts on the dates in the Skjåk bygdebok. My
computer program questions children born to a woman over 50 That would be
the case for the last child, Ragnhild f. 1896. Anne, her mother would have
been 56!?. Even the children born at her age 46 and 49 make her birthday
suspect. Especially showing that she was 36 when married. I would guess
that her birthday is more like Feb 23 1850 rather that 1840. Thanks for the
help. I have updated my family tree program. Norris
