Søfrin Pedersen Romnes

In 1697 Jon Fjone and brother Torjus Grovum took Sofrin Norboe to court. They wanted to know if it was true that Sofrin had made their deceased father dishonored by means of the court. Torjus and Sofrin quarreled and fought steadily. Before Sofrin became Sheriff and farmer at Norboe, he called himself Sofrin Pedersen. All evidence suggests that he was the son of bailiff Peder Sofrinson. He owned two of the farms at Romnes in Holla. Sofrin sold them for 999 rikdollar after he received Nordboe by marriage. His wife was Sigrid Jonsdotter. Her sister was married to Alv Gunleiksson Roholt in Vraadal. They had to outlaw him because of jealousy. He had killed his hired boy.
