Additional Information: 

Gunnulv was the first to leave Tinn in my family.  His father was Kjetil Kjetil Gjøystdal, later moving to Tveito after marrying Gunnulv’s mother Aagot Gunnulvsdatter Tveito.  The parents lost Tveito and moved to Såhaim.  Her parents were Torgeir Vetlesen Såheimsmogen and Aagot Tovsdatter.  By the way, three Kjetilsen brothers married three Torgeirsen sisters.
