VINGE FARM IN NORWAY Vinge 76.6 was the home of my great-great-grand-father, Greis Jonson Vinge and my great-grandfather Mathias Greison Vinge 1844-1910.
Those who lived at Vinge 76.6 included:
Greis Jonson Vinge 1810-1868 *His wife Marit Olsdatter Floan 1812-?
Their children: Johan Greison 1834-1910 Ola Greison 1836-1921 Gjertrud Greisdatter 1842-1912 Mathias Greison Vinge 1844-1910 Ottar 1851-1925 2 other children died in infancy. Greis Jonson became an independent land owner on August 27, 1836 when he purchased Vinge 76.6 from Kristofer Olson Vinnan. The area was known as nedre Vinnan (also referred to as nedre Vinge). Greis had been Greis Jonson Mera but he now became Greis Jonson Vinge. He could have used the name Vinnan but chose Vinge.
In 1865, the farm was listed at 35 acres, with 24 of those acres planted in potatoes. Greis also had 7 sheep, 4 goats, 1 pig and 3 other larger animals, presumably horses or cows.
Dennis Winge donated 2 of his books to the Skatval Historical Society. Jon Satrum took these books to Skatval in September of 2005.
ACTION ITEM FOR ME: Get someone to comment on the differences between the pictures Dennis took and the pictures I took.
Contact Olav Vinge regarding the addition on the left side, and the story that there had been a fire that destroyed the original part
Include more of the text from Dennis's book about the farm. Scan, and clean up, then include.
Was the picture of the "owner" actually a picture of someone who had stopped at the farm with something for the family? Need to clarify this.
