Annfinn Annfinnsson Vetti

http://home.online.no/~arnm/vetti.html In 1714 Vetti went over to "fyremun" Arnfinn Arnfinnson. Arnfinn was probably the son of Arnfinn Botolvson who had a place under Øyri. The same year Arnfinn got Vetti he was married to an Ingrid Olsdtr. who it seems was the daughter of Ola Vetti. There is nothing recorded about either Arnfinn or his wife, so I do not know when they died. The priest had forgotten both about them and many other things. I know that Arnfinn was alive in 1748, and that his son leased Vetti in 1753. Of the children of Arnfinn I know of 'these: Arnfinn who got the place after his father; Ola was married to Hjelle; Sjur was married to a Brita Andersdtr.,, they went to Hardanger; Botolv came to Avdalen; and Sigrid was married to Johannes Olson Voldal.

                                                                           Arnfinn Arnfinnson was born in 1715 and married in 1745 to Elsa Jørgensdtr. Ornes, Hafslo. Arnfinn leased Vetti from the priest Christoffer Munthe 15 October 1753 and had the farm for 20 years, until he died in 1773. His wife died in 1811, and it was said that she was 96 years old. They had 10 children., and of these 9 were adults and married. The eldest son, Arnfinn, was married to a Kari Olsdtr .They lived in Årdal until 1789, when they went away from the district. Their children I see referred to later on the place Dike in Erdal, so perhaps that is where they moved. Jørgen got Vetti; Tomas had a place under Mjelde in lærdal; Anders a place under Lægreid; Ola on Mælheim in Årdal; Tomas d.y. (the younger) had a place under Hestetun; Ragnhild was married to Johannes Gjerde in Lærdal; Anna with a Johannes Johannesson under Øyri in Ardal; and Gjertrud was married to Lasse Hermundson Nundal, who was a tailor.

Årdal i Sogn : bygd og ætter: Arnfinn overtok Vetti i 1714 fra Ola Vetti. Arnfinn var trolig sønn til Arnfinn Botolvsen som hadde plass under Øyri (Øren). Samme året som Arnfinn fikk Vetti ble han gift med Ingrid Olsdatter som kanskje var datter til Ola Vetti. Det er ikke skifte etter Arnfinn eller Ingrid, så vi vet ikke når de døde. Presten har glemt å skrive om det og om mye annet. Vi vet at Arnfinn levde i 1748 og at sønnen bygslet Vetti i 1753.
