Hi George,
Browsing the IGI, I found two likely daughters of Kristen Olsen and Mette
Kjostelsdatter.
Their marriage appears to be 30 Oct 1830 in Nes, Akershus. (batch
M428013-extracted)
One daughter is:
MAREN GORINE CHRISTENSEN
christened 29 May 1831 in Nes (batch C428013 )
And another is likely: (Although Mette T jostelsdatter is spelled as the
mother)
KAREN OLINE CHRISTENSEN
b. 9 Nov 1833 in Ullensaker, Akershus (batch C421724)

What I did not find is Andreas' birth/christening.
Did you get films for him or something?

Good Luck,
Cliff Lien
Alberta, Canada
