These families lived on various farms in Norway-Reindal, Dale/Dalen, Bakken, Felland...go to
www.familysearch.com and search for these. Also try Kvale, Kvaale, Quam, Kvalen, Kvaalen. Also Savison, Saaveson, Nordgarden, and Nordgaarden. Hope this helps. Kvale families trace way way back and are linked to royals, Norwegian and from other countries! I am looking for the parents of Torjus Anundsen Kvalen, b. 1834 or 35. Torjus and his family are found in the census in Mo, Telemark. Wife is Margit Larsdatter b. 1840, found their daughter Gunhild Torjusson, but not his parents. Does anyone have a clue?
