father was from Vetti, and his wife was likewise. She was named Gjertrud
Jørgensdtr. and was married to Ola in 1823. The place they had was
Lauvhaugen. Ola and Gjertrud had only 1 child, son Tomas. He was born 1826
and married in 1849 to Susanna Nilsdtr. Ve (Hagen), Tomas fared badly and
died in Stegabergi in 1855, and the widow and their 2 children,, Ola and
Nils,, went to America in 1863. After this came another Vetti man-to the
place. It was Ola Jørgenson Vetti. He was born in 1845 and married
in 1870 to Mareta Toresdtr. Geithus. She died on the place, and the man
went to America with the children Tomas and Severina. Jørgen, Ola,
Jon, and Ingeborg had gone before. There were these siblings in the district:
