Ledang Farm name

Started by Paulette Switzer-Tatum on Thursday, August 7, 2014

I descend from a Norwegian person, Mikkal Ingebrigtsen, who lived on the Ledang Farm in/near Fosnes, Norway in the 1865 census. His father seems to be Ingebrigt Monsen Mork. In the 1865 census there is a Morten Monsen b. 1786 living with Mikkal and his family as a "foderaadsmand."Does anyone know that relationship please? Mikkal's sister Martha seems to have married an Anders Jakobsen Ledang. As I understand it, Ledang became a surname after World War I. Is that correct?
