Erik Bergersen SANDER (c. 1739-1818)

Berger and Marte's son, Erik, was baptized early in the year 1739. Unfortunately my Norwegian isn't quite good enough to decipher exactly what date the document shown below indicates. Note the upper left hand corner. Ancestry.com (Norway, Select Baptisms, 1634-1927) has the date as 23 Jan 1739.


SAH, Grue prestekontor, Ministerialbok nr. 1, 1712-1748, s. 366-367.

Erik married Eli Sørensdtr Årstad, daughter of Søren Toresen Årstad and Marte Tostensdtr Fuglerud, on 25 Oct 1768 (outlined in red). This is also confirmed in the Brandval-Hokåsen bygdebok (Amundsen & Neskvern, 2012: 23).


SAH, Grue prestekontor, Ministerialbok nr. 2, 1749-1774, s. 411-412.

Eli was baptized on Septuagesima Sunday, the 9th Sunday before Easter in 1744. If my calculations are correct, that would have been on 2 Feb.


SAH, Grue prestekontor, Ministerialbok nr. 1, 1712-1748, s. 434-435.

They had at least two children, Brede (b. 7 Mar 1779) and Eli (b. 20 Apr 1789). Erik, his wife Eli, son Brede, and daughter Eli along with two servants are listed in the 1801 Norway Census. 

Eli, died c. 1809 and was buried 8 Jan 1809 (outlined in red).


SAH, Grue prestekontor, Parish register (official) no. 5, 1805-1814, p. 138-139.

Erik died ten years later on 8 Jan 1818 and was buried on 20 Jan (See entry #7).
