What farm names are the parents from on this birth record?

I found a birth record for Lars Andersen. Father is Anders Larsen and mother is Maria Larsdatter. I believe Maria from farm Gravem, but does this record say what farm the father is from?

 

Looking at Line 8 on page 342. It is the last record on the page.

I think its "Opdøl."

The section for the parents is:

 

"Anders Larsen Liabøe fra Opdal, Tjener, og pigan Maria Larsdatter Graven"

or

"Anders Larsen Liabøe from Opdal, worker, and maiden Maria Larsdatter Graven"

 

Looking in the 1801 and 1865 census, Maria's farm is spelled Gravem in both, so you are right about the spelling of it, but I really see an n in the birth record, not an m, but that is just how these records go.

 

As for Anders being from Liabøe, the first question is does this record mean Opdal parish in Sør-Trøndelag (also spelled Oppdal), Buskerud (now Ovdal), or Hordaland (also spelled Uggal)?

 

And how is the farm Liabøe now spelled?

 

Looking at https://www.norgeskart.no there are Liabø and Liabøen all over the place.

 

 

 

 

But there is specifically one in Oppdal which is not very far from a Liabø in Sunndal. Since there are Liabø in both places, that is probably why the further explanation of "from Opdal" is included in the birth record.

 

The 1801 census for Oppdal in Sør-Trøndelag spells the farm Liabøe. In the 1865 census, it is listed as Liabø.
