Hontvet Nedre:
'Lars Kristenssøn [drev bruk] 17[7]2-1807, var søn av Kristen Hansen paa Øvre Hontvet og bror av Hans Kristensen. Da Hans som hadde overtat Øvre Hontvet efter faren, døde barnløs i 1791, gik gaarden over til Lars. ... Øvre Hontvet overtok enken og Nedre Hontvet gik til sønnen Hans.
Hans Larsen [drev bruk] 1807-47.'
translation: Lars Kristenssøn, who ran the farm [part of Lower Hontvet] 1772-1807, was a son of Kristen Hansen of Upper Hontvet and brother of Hans Kristensen. When Hans, who had taken over Upper Hontvet from his father, died childless in 1791, Upper Hontvet went to Lars. ... [After Lars died], Lars' widow took over Upper Hontvet and [the family's part of] Lower Hontvet went to his son Hans.
Hans Larsen ran the farm [part of Lower Hontvet] 1807-47.'
Hontvet Øvre:
'Lars Kristenssøn [drev gaard] 1791-1814, bror av ovennævnte. Overtok gaarden efter broren Hans i 1791 ved skifte efter denne.'
translation: Lars Kristenssøn, who ran the farm [Upper Hontvet] 1791-1814, was the brother of the above named [Hans Kristenssøn]. Lars took over the farm in 1791 when Hans' estate was settled.
Note: It appears that from 1791 to 1807, Lars ran Upper and part of Lower Hontvet, and might have remained living in Lower Hontvet during and after this time - at least until 1808 when the baptism of his last child identifies the family's residence as nedre Hontvet. By 1814, when he died, he was living at Upper Hontvet, according to his burial record.
