Gunner's genealogy of this family states in 1924, "A Farmer genealogy, whose undoubted research leads back 500 yrs, is shown to be quite a rarity. But it comes to an end when it, like the genealogy we treat here, a distinguished residence on a large farms, not only in Gausdal and elsewhere in Gudbrandsdalen, but also whether the location and cold weather affected their farms, as was undoubtedly awareness about genealogy hidden and together with the history that has dwindled and quickly forgotten. The fact that they have retained the same family name and that has provided a record projecting forward some official record. History is deserved by our country, who always hae preserved stories about the family history with bonded families. It is undesirable when several of sons who lived in Vaalen and Gausdal for approximately 200 yrs ago left home and the record now depends on us"   -   translated from (Gunnersen p13)

"Den aeldste mand av slegten som man med sikkerhet kjender, er Bjorn Gulbrandsen Kraabøl, der i 1400 - aaene findens navnt som bruker av gaarden Kraabol i Vestre Gausdal.  Gaardens gamle naven er kraakuboli.  Hvad der ligger forut for ham er noget tvilsomt og dunkelt. Saaledes ogsaa hans fodselsaar og hans hustrus navn, men hand finds navnet i 1440.  Hans son er Olav Bjornsen Kraabol, f. omkring 1460.  Slegten er forovrig forlangst ufod paa Kraabol, og vilanforer av samme kun de ledd som forer frem til Stene og derfra til Vaalen.  Den naste eier av Kraabol, med hvem vi begynder vor nummer og bokstavanforsel va sistnavntes son." (Gunnersen 15)

by google - "The eldest man of the lineage is with certainty the famous Bjorn Gulbrandsen Kraabol, where in 1400 - We find the name that use of farm Kraabol in Vestre Gausdal. The farm is the old hub "kraakuboli." Everything else for him is something doubtful and obscure. Therefore also his birth and his wife's name, but a manual search finds the name in 1440. His son, Olav Bjørnsen Kraabøl, b. About 1460. The family is otherwise without other births at Kraabol and vilanforer same only the part leads to the Stene and thence Vaals. The named owner of Kraabol, with whom we have written records and the names of the eldest son.
