Person:Eivind Eilefsson Sønstebø (1)

Eivind's patronymic is not certain, and it is not certain that he was the son of Eilef Sønstebø^[1].

Eivind and his first wife Aslaug probably owned Sønstebø in the 1620s. Eivind moved with his second wife, Ingerid, to Tveitan^[1].

   'Eivind var visstnok son til Eilef på Sønstebø og han var g.m. Aslaug Halvorsdtr. frå øvre Vefall i Seljord. Dei hadde truleg garden frå 1620-åra. Aslaug må vere død før midten av 1640-åra, for på denne tid gifte Eivind seg att med enka etter Tor Tveitan, Ingerid. Han flytte til Tveitan og var eigar av 2 1[/]2 tn i garden.'
   
   translation (with help from Google translate): Eivind was apparently the son of Eilef of Sønstebø and he was married to Aslaug Halvorsdatter from øvre Vefall in Seljord. They probably had the farm from the 1620s. Aslaug must have died before the middle of the 1640s, for at that time, Eivind married up again, with Tor Tveitan's widow, Ingerid. He moved to Tveitan and was the owner of 2 1/2 tønner in the farm.
