I AM DOING RESEARCH ON TVEDT/TWEDT FAMILY COMING FROM BERGEN IN EARLY 1900'S

Center person is Fred (Fridtjof) Olaf Tvedt (b. Aug 1886)
son of Fridthjof Olaf & Lovise (Hansen) TVEDT of Bergen,

Hello,
Do you know the name of the farm they came from? My Great grandfather came from the Klungtvedt farm and ended up using Twait as his last name.
