Your Poul had a birthdate of 20 Oct 1823. Most, if not all, including the birth record referred to in Oppland, had a birthdate of 5 Oct 1823. So, unless the 20 Oct date is wrong for your Poul, the correct Poul has not been found. What is your source for his birthday?

The 1875 and 1900 censuses of Hammerfest, Finnmark shows that Poul Olsen Bolstad was born 1830 in Vaagens prestegjeld (not Vaage in Gudbrandsdalen). Vaagen should has been in Vestrålen Islands. However I do not find him in the 1865 census of Vaagen.
