Jackob[?] Amundsøn
(c.1540-?)

Like Eidar Amundsøn (c.1540-?), Jackob Amundsøn may also have been the son of Amund y Sunduige (c.1520-?) and lived on the adjacent farm of Nedre Hemmested. Jackob was stated in the tax rolls for the years 1611-1612, but because his first name does not show up in later generations (on either farm), it can be assummed that he is not directly related to my family. Nothing else is known of him.
