General Notes: Wife - Ingeborg Toresdotter

Morten budde på Fotland i Egersund og kan vere son til Bjørn på Vikesdal. På Ivesdal vert Ingeborg nemnt i 1563 saman med Bjørn og Esbjørn (Asbjørn?). Ingeborg skatta for 1 vett korn. P. Valand meiner at denne Ingeborg var Ingeborg Toresdotter frå Berge i Forsand, enke etter Morten Bjørnson som vert nemnt i 1521 på Fotland i Egersund (sjå Ætt og Heim 1977 og 1979).
Valand meiner Ingeborg bur hjå sonen Bjørn på Ivesdal. Bjørn sin son Tore, kan då vere oppkalla etter Ingeborg sin far. Valand spør òg om Ingeborg var gift andre gong med ein Anbjørn. Ingeborg kan ha hatt barna Bjørn Mortenson Ivesdal, Gard Mortenson Vikesdal, kona til Anbjørn Gjermundson Gjedrem, ei Anbjørnsdotter gift med Tosten Odland og Ommund Ivesdal. 34894
