Marilyn,

My mistake - it's in Soknedal books.

Parents of Ole Mikkelsen Bjerkenås were Mikkel Sivertsen Bjerkenås, b. 1695
Bjørkåsen, Soknedal; d. 1755 same place. Married to Randi Olsdtr. Stavrum,
b. 1692, d. 1761.

Parents of Mikkel Sivertsen were Sivert Sivertsen Bjerkenåsm b, 1655, d.
1717 and Guri (unknown) b. 1662 ; d. 1746.

This is from my database. I'll get out the book and see if there is any
more information.
