I'm sorry, no. I would very much like to be in that group, but not this
time. It's so much I would like to see and do in SD. And many relatives and
"maybe relatives" to speak with. I think if I even lived there for a long
time, I would not have answers to all my questions.

None of the sources tells more than "Rennebu", and I suspect the newest
sources to copy the oldest source on this. I have also tried to find some
more in the church records (I have microfiche), but it's hard to read.
