Finnestad Ancestry

I located the Norwegian confirmation document for Ole and Mari Finnestad's granddaughter, Anna Knutson. It was located at the parish records for the St Petri church in Stavanger, Norway. Anna was confirmed October, 19, 1879. In attendance were her parents, Elizabeth and Ole Andreas Knutson.

Ole and Mari Finnestad's first grandchild, Anna Knutson was born to their daughter Elizabeth and husband Ole Andreas Knutson on July 25, 1865 in the Hetland Frue parish of Rogaland County, Norway. Below is a copy the parish record. The farm name looks like "Dusevig". (Anna is entry #84.) The "official" parish record is more legible, listed below. (Anna is entry #112.)
