Person:Osmund Marvig (1)

While the Jelsa bygdabok lists him as born in 1791, I cannot find a reference to him at Rodne in the 1801 census. The 1801 census does list a family headed by a person with the right name to be his father and with children in the right age range. I am assuming that he probably belongs in this family and that either the census missed him or the date in the Jelsa book is wrong. The family in the census is: Sjur Osmundsen Huusbonde 43 Begge i 1te aegtesk. Gaardbruger Elen Larsdatter Hans Kone 46 Begge i 1te aegtesk. Thorbiorn Sjursen Deres born 8 Ugift Siri Sjursdatter Deres born 12 Elen Sjursdatter Deres born 10 Mangela Sjursdatter Deres born 5 Guraa Sjursdatter Deres born 1 Siri Biornsdatter I Huuse 87 Enke eft. 1te aegtesk.
