LOG/NOTES:
-- Information from Lorens Berg's bygdebok says this person may be the father of the two who the farm was split between (which both happened to be Jenssøn's), Sen Jenssøn and Anders Jenssøn.  Since the former owner was Jens Svenssøn, this seems like too much to be a coincidence, and I am connecting this person as the father, although it should be verified in other ways, if at all possible -- SRE, 30 Sep 2000.

NOTES/LOG:
-- Wrong guy.  This guy is the younger brother of ours.  DOUBLE-CHECK TO SEE IF THIS IS REALLY RIGHT. NOTE:  LOCALITY WAS BORGE, ORMAN, ONSOY, OSTFOLD, NORWAY.   this sounds like it may have some conflict.  Onsoy and Borge are both parishes in Ostfold.  So I have changed it.  Orman may be a farm name.  Elsewhere it is listed as being in Onsoy parish, to which I have changed it.
