According to the research on Heritage Quest.com Bård Dyresen may have been a priest. It appears from the source in the Norwegian Archives 28.02.1444 (DN IX 291) that the children may have held land in common and undivided. They inherited estates in Ringerike, Hadeland and Romerike. These properties may have come to him as the droughts and plague devastated the farmers and villages. Putting temporarily abandoned land in the hands of the church through the priest was frequently done in the Middle Ages with the hopes of returning to it later on. The previous owner, of course, may never have returned to reclaim the property.

Sigrid is a half sister of Erland but no wives of Bård have been identified.

1442

There are still a few questions about the different children's birth dates and the possible mothers.

The plague visited Europe and Scandinavia on numerous occasions from about 1347 for the next 150 years. This was a tough time to be born and survive. Although Norway was one of the later places to feel the effect it was inevitable and devastating. By some estimates at least one third of the population of Norway died. Farms and entire villages were abandon. Consequently many records were probably lost and regional social connections failed.
