family records by Gunnersen, 1924

This family was laid out in the research of G. F. Gunnersen in 1924 with the help of a Norway archivist E. A. Thomle.

Ole Madssen Stene (b. abt 1560) "He had 3 sons:  Mads Olsen Stene, Stener Olsen Vaalen, and  Jakob Olsen Stene. From these sons came the families of Vaalen, and Jacob Olsen (Stene) continued the genealogy of Stene. His son Nils Jakobsen Stene was married to Kirsten Harkildsdatter Reistad, and when they had children, they took to him as their own Axle Svendsen Waalen, (this sentence doesn't make sense to me - EC)son of his marrying Svend Stenersen and his wife genealogy of Ronnag Andersdatter Reistad. These two young were married and the Testament of 12th January 1703 they turned the old farm over to them. Descended from them the present lineage continues of the distinguished Stene...."

The history in this source points back to occupation of the farm area from 200 to 500 years by the Stene family.
