    • Occupation: 1870, Grøtem, Selbu, Sør-Trøndelag, Norge; Møbelsnekker og treskjærer.
    • Residence: 1870, Grøtem, Selbu, Sør-Trøndelag, Norge; Utigarden Grøtte mellom.

    Notes:

    Bildet av Sivert og Marit er tatt i 1900 i Chicago, under deres besøk der. De hadde fått dekket reisen av sønnen Thore, for å besøke sin dødssyke sønn.

    Birth:
    Foreldre var nevnt som husmannsfolk på Ruste.

    Christened:
    Faddere var Olle lille Ulekleiv, Siver Killie, Siver Kirchestuen, Anne Skrukstad og Rønnaug Olsdtr Ruste.

    Residence:
    Sivert og Marit flyttet til Skrogstad en gang før mai 1856, da deres nest eldste sønn Erland, ble født der. De drev gården de neste 13 årene, og de fikk nok 5 barn til der.

    Da Siverts far, Hans, døde 20.september 1862, var det Sivert som hadde det hele og fulle ansvaret for Skrogstad-gården. Han og Marit tok også samtidig hånd om hans mor, enke og føderådskone Anne.

    Under folketellingen i 1865 bodde følgende personer på Skruktad-gården i Dovre prestegjeld, matrikkel 310, 2det skoledistrikt, alle med fødested Dovre:

    Syver Hansen, gaardbruker og selveier, 43 år.
    Marith Erlandsdatter, hans kone, 36 år.

    Barna:

    Hans Syversen, 14 år.
    Erland Syversen, 10 år.
    Thore Syversen, 7 år.
    Syver Syversen, 4 år.
    Anne Syversdatter, 2 år.

    Føderådskonen, Syvers mor, Anne Hansdatter, 67 år.

    Det er notert at det er 1 hest, 6 store kveg og 2 får på Skrukstad. Avlingen er 1 tønne bygg og 1/4 tønne poteter.

    Kanskje den hurtige familieforøkelsen fikk Siver og Marit til å søke forandring, kanskje kunne ikke jorda på Skrogstad gi føde nok for den voksende familien.
    Uansett, Sivert solgte Skrogstad til naboen Hans Johansen.

    Troligvis har en del av handelsavtalen vært at Siverts mor Anne, skulle bli tatt vare på av Hans Johansen, for hun ble igjen på Skrogstad til hun døde 28.juli 1876.

    Sivert og Marit tok med seg barna og flyttet til Utigarden på Grøtem i Selbu.

    Occupation:
    Med beliggenheten nær Trondheim by, begynte Sivert med møbelsnekring og treskjæring for å skjøte på innkomsten på den lille gården.

    Residence:
    Sivert og Marit kom fra Dovre i Gudbrandsdalen, og kjøpte gården Utigarden Grøtem mellom grunnummer 9/1, og hadde den fra 1870 til 1904, da Sivert døde.

    Skjøtet til Sivert er datert vinteren 1870 og kjøpesummen var på 655 speciedaler.

    Før de overtok, i 1866, målte gården 110 mål dyrket jord og 48 målnaturlig eng.

    Når det er folketelling i 1875 er Sivert nevnt som Gaardbruger, Selveier, Træskjærer på Grøtte mellem (gaard).

    Kona Marith, barna Hans, Erland, Thore, Sivert, Mathias, Anne, Aagodt, Marith og Anna Maria er også nevnt.

    Sønnen Erland er nevnt som Træskjærer også, mens sønnen Thore er Skomager.

    I 1875 hadde Sivert 1 hest, 2 kyr, 3 ungnaut, 5 sauer, 1 geit og 1 gris, sådde 1/4 tønne bygg og 1 tønne havre og satte 2 tønner poteter.

    I folketellingen i 1900 står Sivert Skrogstad (f.1823 på Dovre) nevnt som gårdbruker og selveier av Grøtte mellem. Han er da enkemann.
    På gården har de korn, poteter og kreatur.

    Datteren Aagot overtok bruket.

    Sivert married Marit Erlandsdatter Lindsøe, "Skrogstad" on 12 Feb 1854 in Dovre kirke, Oppland, Innlandet, Norge.
