Biography* Bygdebok For Folldal:

Farm No. 228,
Subdivision No. 2
Borsungseter
Midti

The border between Folldal and Dovre previously went between Sore
Borsungseter (150-1) and Midti Borsungseter. For that reason, all the
three farms, Midti, Nortdre Borsungseter, and Heimtun, were located in
Dovre municipality. After 1 January, 1970 they were transferred to
Folldal.

The farms are located about 900 meters above sea level, above the birch
trees, have good but rock tillable soil with a good location in the
steep slopes facing the sun.

The first man to clear the land was Johannes (Jehans) Guttormson
Hjerkinn, born about 1695. He and his wife, Anne, started to build
during the spring of 1723. They were second cousins and got royal
license to get married.

Anne had a sister, also called Anne, and she was then a widow at
Hjerkinn sondre. the newly married couple got permission from her to
build themselves a home at Borsungholen. Jehans' brother, Lars
Guttormson Hjerkinn, who was then the owner of Hjerkinn nordre, also had
nothing against letting his brother clear land for a farm, which became
a cotter's farm under Nordistugu Hjerkinn.

The sons of Johannes, Guttorm and Peder, both lived at Borsungseter, and
it is probable that they divided the farm between them. In 1801, in any
case, there are two cotter's farms, Midti Borsungseter, that belonged to
Hjerkinn nordre, and Nordre Borsungseter, that belonged to Hjerkinn
sondre. The operators in 1801 were the sons of Guttorm and Peder at
Midti, Johannes Pederson, and at Nordre, Hans Guttormson. On the family
tree on therefore shows Peder under Midti and Guttorm under Nordre.

Biography* Sevilhaug says that it is not clear where Ragnhild Eriksdatter came from.
His text appears to me to have contradictory information on the
relationships in this family. At one point Sevilhaug refers to Ragnhild
as the mother of Marit when in fact I believe he means that she is the
mother of Anne and the grandmother of Marit. I have relied on his
accompanying (tree form) chart (and the logic of dates and the naming
patterns) in deciding how to list the family.

The more I look into this record, the more facinated I become of this "ironlady", bu hgh love-and softharted Elen Christine Rasmissen. From 1837 to 1865 she lost 2 husbands, 4 children, her parents, 2 fathers- and 2 mothers in-law, and some of her sisters/brothers and for sure some of her friends.

Still she adopted her grandson Anton Nielsen, son of her son, Nils Eidas Rasmussen, and Marie Margarethe Johansdtr. And upon all this, she alone kept the farm going, so [Rasmus Peder] was able to buy the farm later on. I think i also touched [Rasmus Peder], because somebody told me that he had a warm, harmless, and cosy personality. These qualities was also a lable for Maren Katrine, so they fit like the hands in the gloves.

If anybody told me this story, and I didn't know it was true, I would applaud it with; what a tragical but beautiful fair-tale!2

Joanna Blessing1,2

Appears on charts:Ancestry of Helen Grace Gould
Ancestry of Tommie Glenn Stemm , III
Biography* Pope's "Pioneers of Massachusetts" states that Joanna was received from
Salem Church to that of Topsfield on 19 April 1664.

In 1670 she deposed that she was about 70 years old. The year of birth
shown above is based on that information.

Davis (Wildes) says that she died about 1682.

See Davis for an account of her testimony against Mr. Gilbert's drinking.

In 1692 at the trial of Joanna Towne's daughter for witchcraft, Ann Putnam
testified that young John Putnam had said (referring to Rebecca Towne Nurse
and her sister Sarah Towne Cloyes) that it "was no wonder they were witches
for their mother was so before them."

Although I cannot name her parents, it appears that Joanna's Grandparents
were John and Joan Blyssynge of Somerleyton (?) England. They had two
sons, Julian (born 1571) and William (born 1575)... one of which was
presumably the father of Joanna.

DNA Ancestor* DNA cousin on Ancestry.com: sjackson04, 8th cousins with common ancestors Jacob Towne and Catharine Symonds 
Biography* From "The Ancestry of Dudley Wildes" by Walter Goodwin Davis:

Jacob Towne was baptized at Great Yarmouth on March 11, 1632, and
was a boy of three or four when he came to New England with his
parents. He married Catherine Symonds in Salem on June 26, 1657.
He died in Topsfield on November 27, 1704.

Jacob was seldom in the courts. Mr. William Perkins sued him in
1657, but the case was withdrawn, but in 1660, when Mr. Henry
Bartholomew sued him for withholding a mare and a foal, the
verdict was for Bartholomew.

In 1682 he acted as agent for his town in the bitter dispute
between Salem and Topsfield over the boundary line, which is
considered to have had vengeful repercussions in the witchcraft
accusations of 1692.

The will of Jacob Towne, husbandman, was made November 24, 1704,
and proved January 5, 1705. He left to his son, Jacob, the land
upon which he was already settled consisting of about 49 acres on
the south side of Ipswich river and an acre and 60 poles on the
North side.

Ancestry of Florence Stella Semingson
Biography* Sevilhaug:
Torber Arneson came from Sunndal. He was a schoolteacher... and came to be
known as "Torber schoolmaster". Sevilhaug attributes the following to him:
when he was angry at the schoolgirls because they did not know their
lessons he would blurt out - "it is too bad, big girls - soon ready to be
married, do not know a single word of God."

Sevilhaug, in one paragraph, variously spelled the last name Arnesson,
Arnesen, and Arneson.

In 1751 (the same year as the Stromstad Agreement) Torber got the deed to
West Sorken.

Sondre Sorken (Farm 43/1) is the oldest one of the Sorken Farms. It was
built in 1751 by Torber Arnesen, two years before Jon Jonsen built V.
Sorken (Western Sorken). When the holdings were assessed a while later
they got (combined) 3 calf skins in tax and the name of Sorkmoen, which
then later got abbreviated to Sorken.

He and his wife were both dead by 1775... when probate was held at West
Sorken.

The estate was valued at 143 daler in assets, 73 daler, 30 ort and 18
sk. in net assets. The oldest son (Torber Torbersen) who was 22 years
old, took over the farm.

Davis (Wildes) notes that there is an interesting gravemarker over the
grave of Thomas Deacon's oldest son (also Thomas) indicating humorously
that he was very tall and skinny:

"Heere lyeth interred the body of Thomas Deacon the sonne of Thomas
Deacon and Martha his wife of Cornerhall Batchelor of Arts and student
in phisick who by his extraordinary spare body in respect of breadth
being long sick of a consumption and of his as extraordinary height

Young Thomas had matriculated at Trinity College, Oxford, November 23,
1627, aged 18, and received his B.A. on December 6, 1630.

Margaret Davies father died when she was quite young (he was the president of
Princeton College. She was raised by her mother with four brother and
sisters in Hanover, Virginia.

Note that there is a serious question as to whether the Margaret Davies who
was married to William Poague is the same Margaret Davies who was the
daughter of Samuel Davies.

There was a Margaret Davies born in 1751 to Walter Davis and Martha
Cunningham in Augusta Rockspring Virginia (IGI 831450541). It bears looking
into.

WPT: Mrs. Poage (Margaret) died in 1843, aged 98 years.

Biography* From Basing, Hants County, England.

John's first 3 children were born in England. He arrived with his family
at the harbor of Boston in 1638 and was one of the first settlers at
Andover, Massachusetts.

John Frye was one of the original purchasers of the Cochichewick tract. He
moved from Newbury to Andover sometime before 1641.

Frye became a Freeman in 1669.

Gen. Reg of Fist Settlers of N.E. indicates that he died in 1698 at 92
years and 7 months of age. Dates above are calculated from that.
