2. Note: above sources not clear on place of birth: Terrill Hayes notes Midtdal, Tulfsingen, Røros; however, his father reported as born in Østgård, Dalsbygda (Os), Norway
- not clear if Berit Nilsdtr's birth place is in Tolga or Sør-Trøndenlag (Terrill Hayes, above, indicates Valdål); "hytte" refers to a cabin

- Mikkel Larsen born 1729 and Berit Nilsdatter Valdal. Ved (at or by) Femundshytta ---- however, it is not clear if "ved Femundshytta" refers to where they lived [ but most likely ] versus where she was born - Mikkel Larsen's son, Lars (born 1762 and died 1850) took over farm - - Midtdalen Søndre; in 1791 was listed as Bygsler (leaseholder); earlier on the page, it is noted that Lars, son of Mikkel took over the farm Larsgaarden, bnr.3; Mitdalen søndre
-- note: this page (or section of book) does not give more information about Mikkel Larsen and Berit's other children -- only Lars, born 1762
4. Death, 1783, age 57 - Norway Parish Registers, Røros
- most family tree data records death as 1783, with the exception of Rolf Inge Holden (geni.com) who says Dec 1803 age 74 BUT there is no Mikkel Larsen death/burial record in 1803 in Røros parish register
Conclusion: I have recorded his death as 1783 - Norway Parish Register is likely the most accurate
3. Birth at Midtdalen Søndre, Tufsingdalen, Tolga 284,577
Mikkel married Beret Nilsdtr Valdal on 7 Jul 1758 in Røros, Sør-Trøndelag, Norway. (Beret Nilsdtr Valdal was born on 20 Oct 1728 in Valdål, Sør-Trøndelag, Norway 1926 and died in Aug 1805 in Norway 1926.)
