Hi Bette, you will find my aunt Martha and uncle Edward (Edvard) Eid marrying a brother and sister of the Kjos farm, ~1850 or so. They are my grandmother's brothers. It was quite an event in Brandbu when they married. They are all four buried next to eachother in the Næs parish, I have pictures of the head stones.
