The parents are "Pige (Maid) Marie Monsdatter" and "Inderst (a person who rented a room from others and had his own household) Enkem[ann] (Widower) Meinert Gabrielsen". There is a word in parenthesis which follows Marie Monsdatter's name which may be something like "hjemstepige". It probably means something like "house maid", but I can't find the actual word in any dictionary.
Here is the indexed version in the Norwegian archives: https://www.digitalarkivet.no/en/view/255/pd00000018649483

Thank you!
Does it seem they were actually married? Olga (GR7N-M32) shows up on the Norway 1900 census with different parents (my ancestors), keeping her last name of Meinertsdatter. It looks like she was placed with my ancestors. Any thoughts?
Also, I used to use Digitalarkivet for my Norwegian lines, but haven't used it in a few years. When I go there now, I struggle to use it…is it a paid subscription now? I struggle to access church books…any suggestions?
Thanks again!

Sorry about not getting back to you earlier on your Digitalarkivet question.
There is a webinar available on Family Search which can help you some with navigating Digitalarkivet. Unfortunately, the information is a little outdated (the website has changed some) but you may still find it useful. The Digitalarkivet portion begins at about 5:15 into the webinar. This link will get you to it: .
I believe this link will get you to the website version that the webinar is using: https://www.digitalarkivet.no/en/arkiv/forside .
And this link will get you to the pages where you can enter the County and Parish name to find the books you want to look at: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/en/kb/browse .
