Kirsti was born April 12,
1827 by parents Ole Halvorsen and Kirsti Torkildsdatter Fossum. When she
emigrated, she left together with Tollef Henriksen
Fossum and his family, in which she was a servant girl.
In 1835 she lives with her parents and brothers Halvor (13) and Ole (3) and
sister Karen (6) at Aasen under Foss. We find the family there again in 1845.
Brother Halvor (22) has now married Anne Anundsdatter (25) and they also live
in the same house with their little son Anders (1).
