Ole Berntsen [aka Bersvend], b 1650, Norway, died after 1738 at Orvøyen, Holøyen, Tolga

son: Bersvend Olsen (1699-1747), g. m. Ingeborg Iversdatter, Sawmaster from Røros. Cleared Søndmør. Their eldest son Iver Bersvendsen took over Orvøyen.

- the above page on Geni.com FT posts an excerpt of page 546:
Ole Bersvendsen received a deed on the place at Orvøyen in 1719. In a deed is from 1791 and it is stated that the magistrate "veledle Johan Christian Schuit" on 24 February 1719 gave a deed on the place Orvøyen to the builder/settler Ole Bersvendsen on the following stretch: "To Orvkjernet on the southern edge and from there to Sagfossen on the eastern edge and to the northern end of Gråvold Iige to Flobakken as well as the southern side of the nearby stream.

Ole Bersvendsen's origins and who he was married to are not known, but he has a son Bersvend who clears land at Søndmør (originally Søndre Holøyen) in the 1740s. It looks as if Orvøya and the elder Søndmør have belonged together until Bersvend Olsen's eldest son Iver Bersvendsen took over Orvøya.

Bersvend Olsen (1699-1747), g. m. Ingeborg Iversdatter, Sawmaster from Røros. Cleared Søndmør. Their eldest son Iver Bersvendsen took over Orvøyen.

....... and, their other son, Even Bersvendsen took over the farm at Søndmør and became know as Even Bersvensden Søndmør, 1734 - 1795. It is from this line that the Prestlien family descends ^5316,6118

  Noted events in his life were:

1. Death - disproven 1747 or 1754, Between 1747 and 1754, Tolga, Hedmark, Norway. ⁶¹¹⁹ There does not appear to be a burial or death record for Bersvend Olsen in the Tolga Ministerialbok (1733-1767). The geni.com website includes at 2 family data bases (one managed by Rune Meli and the other by 'private user'). Rune Meli links to the "private user' that records his death in 1747. However, both databases do not include any source citiation.

The Tolga bygdebok committee review [ http://www.tolgaslekt.no/ ] records Bersvend death as 1748.

The Tolga parish register for this time frame is very difficult to read and I am not able to make it out.

Bersvend married Ingeborg Iversdatter ⁶⁰⁹³.^,6117 (Ingeborg Iversdatter was born in 1699 in Røros, Sør Trondelag, Norway ⁶¹¹⁷ and died in 1797 in Tolga, Hedmark, Norway ⁶¹¹⁷.)
