However, I did find Anton Theodor's birth & baptism records and his confirmation record on Norway's Digitalarkivet site. Here they are in case you haven't found them yourself. Click into or Copy & Paste the "Permanent pagelink" or "Permanent imageink" and those will take you to the exact pages. 1874 # 37 Born 14 January Baptised 1 March Anton Theodor parents Tønnes Tønnesen Stokke and Karen Marie Thorsdatter None of names of his 'sponsors' are familiar to me. Source information: Rogaland county, Høyland in Høyland, Parish register (official) nr. A 9.1 (1857-1877), Birth and baptism records 1874, page 113.
