Ruud. also for the marriage of Colbjorn andMargit's marriage record: This took place 21 June 1795 in the Flaa church. No ages are given in this record and their father's names are not given. Yet, the 1801 census for Nes gave us a few clues to their suspected ages. The 1801 census lists Colbjorn Tollefsen and his family living on the Ruud farm." 21 June, 1795, Marriage: Colbjorn Tollevsen Ruud and Margit Embretsdtr.
