    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: GHolter4484 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.scan-balt.norway.counties.oppland/3325.3.2.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I think the S probably refers to the South (Søndre) part of Voldengen). Arbeider pa gaarden = worker (laborer) on the farm. Krs probably refers to the specific parish within Vestre Toten in which they were baptized. I'm not sure which of the three churches this would refer to, but I rather think it would be either Kolbu or Aas rather than Eina, so I would look in the records of those two churches first. I hope this helps. But someone with more local knowledge may be able to provide more definitive answers. There is more information on Toten at http://www.totenlag.org/ including pictures of the churches. Good luck with your research!
