Your great Daraleen :)
It must have been a hard time living in Skien around 1900, so many children
died, so many twins and even 3 and 4 children at same time. I wonder if it
could have something to do with the work they did.
This Reierson family as "dayworker" seem they have been moved a lot around
and it seems they did not baptism the children very regularly, (I see many
get baptism when they are 1-6 year old and some are collected so they do
more children at the same time).
It is strange that so many records don’t appear, baptism can be hidden years
later but deaths? Like this Thorolf Idar who only was 20, and Harald 41
leaving widow with small children. Where did they go?
Did this first child Ruben come to Norway or did it die before?

So we have;
Harald Reiersen born 22-11-1868 Næs/Sauda - 1909 son of Reier Haraldsen
Indleggen (Holten) appr. 1833 and (married 1876) Thone Tollefdatter

Married 17-11-1892 Minnesota USA
Anna Marie Andersdatter 22-3-1874 Holden, ill daughter of Widow Anders
Andersen Øygarden from Sweden and Ingeborg Halvarsdatter Deilsbakke.

Ruben 1893 USA

Thorolf Idar 1897 Holden - 1917 Holden
Anders Edvin 12-4.1899 Deilsbakke, Holden -
Kato William 31-3-1902 Skien - 18-8-1907 Skien
