a…Aksleiane Kristine was named for her father’s first wife.  She grew up at Lye in Time parish. She wanted to marry Ole Eikeland but her father didn’t want her to marry a peasant boy.  She was sent to relatives in Denmark.  Ole married someone else and moved to “Egro på Njaa” – one of the homes on the Njaa farmstead.  His wife soon died, and when Akseliane heard it she sailed on a ship for Stavanger, met a man from Time and was allowed to go with him on his way home getting off at Njaa.  She was there three weeks before her father knew she had come home.  She told her father that he could now see that it was God’s will that she should have Ole, so her father married them, and she moved to “Egro på Njaa”, where she lived the rest of her life.
   At Egro – to the north one could see all of Jaren “innovermot” (toward) Ullandhaug, and on clear days a glimpse of “Ryfylkefjella” mountains in the country.  To the south, Lye and the Vestly famrs, and a little of the church steeple.  To the east, the Njaa mountains in the background.

She was baptized and given the name Lovisa the name of the queen.  Claus and Lovisa Broderson’s daughter Anna Maria married Daniel Schive, a pastor.  Anna Maria and Daniel Schive had a daughter name Frederikke, who became the mother of Anna Marie Bore.

a. & b.  The pastor’s daughters in those days were called “jomfruene på Lye.” 

Jens Bull moved to Norheim in 1800, and lived his last few years at his daughter Karnen Pernille’s home.
