Wik b: 1893 T If you look at the census of 1865 for Østre Toten at http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/wc/webcens.exe?slag=n&filename=arkivverket/ft1865/f60528&variabel=0&postnr=7508&fulle=true&spraak= you will find a Helene Olsdatter, a 46-year-old widow living at as a cottager at the Rødningsbye farm. She has a daughter Olave Olsdatter, who is 14 years old. This is the only Olave O. who is about 15 years old in the 1865 census for Østre Toten, so the odds are pretty high that it is the same person you are looking for. -- Vennlig hilsen Frank H.
