    Notes:

    Christened:
    Faddere var Christopher Johannesen Thorsnes, Martha Jonsdatter Thorsnes, Elling Johannesen Borlaug, Johannes Colbensen (?) Sværen og Birthe Andersdatter Sværen.

    Education:
    Gikk Balestrands lærerskole, under den kjente dr.Krogh-Tonnings bestyrelse, hvor han tok eksamen i 1868.

    Occupation:
    En fremsynt Rokke-bonde kjøpte i 1875 den eiendommen som storskolen står på, bød den frem for kommunen som skoletomt, og fikk raskt positivt svar fra myndighetene. Byggingen av skolen startet året etter. Det var da en kraftig byggeboom for skoler, og det var endatil utarbeidet typetegninger for slike skolebygg.
    Rokke skole har stor likhet med disse typetegningene, men i detaljer finner vi også flere likheter med gårdshus i bygda, noe som sikkert viser den lokale tilknytningen via lokale håndverkere.

    Skolehuset hadde opprinnelig lærerbolig og ett stort klasserom. Rommene i 2. etg. var lærerens private.
    Etter hvert (ukjent byggeår) ble det også bygd bryggerhus med grovkjøkken for lærerfamilien, samt med sløydsal for skolens elever.
    I en periode på ca. 25 år fram til 1925 var det poståpneri i skolens midtgang. Det ble da satt inn ovn der, og elevene ble henvist til en egen dør som man skar ut på endeveggen mot kirken.
    Det var lærerens familie som var poståpnere.
    Det tilhørende gårdsbruket ble også drevet av læreren, og mange tidligere elever husker fortsatt både utedoen på låveveggen og lærerens forbudte eplehage. Småskolen, som i dag (2012) huser barnehagen, kom til tidlig i forrige århundre.

    Poståpneri er en eldre betegnelse på et lite postkontor på landsbygda i Norge, ledet av en poståpner. Navnet kommer av at den ansvarlige åpnet postvesken, tok ut det som skulle leveres til stedet, og la ned post som skulle andre steder.

    Enhver embetsmann, tjenestemann eller gjestgiver kunne pålegges å være poståpner fra 1647, da det norske postvesenet ble etablert. Først ble de betalt med portofrihet for egne brev, men etterhvert ble det innført betaling for poståpnerne. Fra 1842 ble mange landhandlere utnevnt til poståpnere, og i 1871 bortfalt plikten til å være poståpner for de tidligere nevnte embetsmenn, tjenestemenn og gjestgivere. I 1909 ble fagforeninga Poståpnernes Landsforbund stiftet. Fra 1913 fikk de regulær lønn, og i tiden 1945–1960 var det omkring 3.500 poståpnerier i Norge.

    Klokker ved Rokke kirke og lærer ved Rokke skole, Karl Hansen, ble i 1883 tilsatt som lærer ved døvstumskolen på Hamar, og sa opp sin post i Rokke.

    Det var 14 søkere til den ledige posten, og striden kom til å stå mellom J.K.Hansen (bror til den avtrådte), innstilt av skolekommisjonen, og klokker Nikolai Nilsen fra Rømskog, som et mindretall ville ha tilsatt.
    Det ble stor strid om dette, men til slutt ble J.K.Hansen tilsatt som klokker. Han ble bare 1 år, før han også dro til Hamar, som broren.

    Nå ble posten igjen lyst ledig, og det meldte seg 18 søkere.
    I skolekommisjonens møte den 28.juli 1884 ble Johannes Thorsen Sværen, lærer fra Strandebarm i Hardanger, innstilt som nummer 1, og det ble godkjent av stiftsdireksjonen.

    Sværen overtok samme år, og skjøttet posten ut resten av sin tjenestetid.

    Rokke skole ble oppført i nærheten av Rokke kirke, og ble tatt i bruk i 1876.
    Skolehuset inneholdt lærerbolig, som familien Sværen overtok da Johannes startet opp i sin stilling som klokker og lærer i Rokke.

    Den 18.august 1887 var biskop C.P.P.Essendrop på visitas i Rokke kirke. Her overhørtes 54 av 55 barn og 3 lærere. Katekismens ordlyd viste seg vel innøvd og barnas kunnskap sto ikke under det alminnelige. Lærernes dyktighet i Berg ble uttalt som ikke lite forskjellig, hos de fleste antagelig, hos enkelte rett god.

    Lærerlønninger fra 1890 viser at Sværen i Rokke fikk 36 uker á kroner 14,00.

    Skoleloven av 1889 ble gjennomført i Berg, en lov som sto for en mer demokratisk, folkestyrt skole.

    Folkeskole-utrykket ble innført, og skolen skulle bli for alle. Opplæringen måtte bli fyldigere, og fagkretsen måtte utvides.
    Det ble innført lærebøker i geografi, historie og naturfag med sunnhetslære. Håndarbeid for gutter og jenter, tegning og gymnastikk ble innført.
    Skolen skulle være 7-årig, og lesetiden ble øket fra 9 til minst 12 uker årlig. Videre kunne en opprette en - frivillig - opplæring inntil 6 uker årlig utover den lovbestemte lesetid, og etter avsluttet folkeskole kunne det opprettes fortsettelsesskoler for lærelysten ungdom.

    Etter 1892:

    På Rokke skole ble det 3 avdelinger, og en klasse i første avdeling med 12 uker, og to klasser i andre avdeling med 18 uker i klassen.

    De var fordelt slik:
    Barnetallet var 96, første klassen 20 på Mellevold, 10 på Herrebrøden, 10 i Fjerdingene, 24 i andreklassen og 32 i tredjeklassen ved Rokke skole.

    Lærerlønningene økte også til 20 kroner for de eldre lærerne, 18 kroner til de yngre og i småskolen til 14 kroner, kostpengene medregnet.

    Under en visitas ved biskop A.Chr.Bang den 20.august 1897 i Rokke kirke ble det uttalt at 49 barn var vel underviste, og salmesangen var alminnelig god.

    For 1900 så lærerlønningen slik ut for Johannes T. Sværen i Rokke:

    36 uker á 36 timer á kroner 22,00 per uke. Totalt kroner 792,00.

    I 1904 ble det vedtatt å bygge en småskole like ved storskolen på Rokke.

    For 1910 så lærerlønningen slik ut for Johannes T. Sværen i Rokke:

    36 uker á kroner 22,00 per uke. Totalt kroner 792,00.

    Fra 1.juli 1918 ble lærerne opptatt i Statens Pensjonskasse, og måtte betale 10 prosent av all fast inntekt. Dette var nok mye å betale, men saken var jo den, at de samtidig fikk lønnstillegg slik at nettolønnen ikke ble mindre enn før.

    Loven om alderspensjon sa at den fulle alderspensjon var 66 prosent av sluttlønnen for de med lavere lønninger, og 54 prosent for de med høyere. Aldersgrensen for menn var 70 år, og for kvinner 65 år, med adgang til å gå av 5 år tidligere.

    Elektrisk lys i skolene kom først etter 1919.

    Lærerlønningene økte også dette året til kroner 2.400,00 for 36 uker á 36 timer i storskolen, og kroner 2.000,00 for 36 uker á 30 timer i småskolen.

    De neste 2 årene fulgte lærer J.T.Sværen i Rokke denne lønningen:

    36 uker á kroner 66,67. Totalt kroner 2.400,00.

    Rettskrivning ble innført i Berg etter bokmålets former i 1920.

    Den første lærer i Berg som søkte avskjed i henhold til aldersgrensevedtaket var Johannes Thorsen Sværen i Rokke. Han fylte 70 år den 21.januar 1920, og søkte derfor avskjed som kirkesanger og lærer i Rokke fra 1.oktober 1920. Han var ennå åndsfrisk og kjekk, men fant det likevel best å takke av, etter å ha virket som lærer i 50 år.

    Johannes T.Sværen feiret sitt 50-årsjubileum som lærer den 12.september 1920 på Rokke skole. Dette formet seg også som en avskjedsfest for han. Hele skolestyret, prester, ordfører, lærerne og mange bygdefolk møtte opp for å hylle han.
    Skolestyret hadde kjøpt et vakkert gullur, som formannen Johs. Uglum overrakte han med mange lovord. Gulluret var utstyrt med Sværens monogram og følgende innskrift:

    Takk for trofast arbeid i 50 år ! Berg skolestyre.

    Pastor Ivar Sætrang holdt en vakker hyldningstale for han, hvor han takket for godt arbeid i skolen, og leste til slutt opp et hyldningsdikt. Siste vers lød som følger:

    Hvor hurtig svant dog de 50 år
    i arbeid for folk og for hjem - !
    Og ofte var du vel trett og sår -,
    men trøstig du ilte dog frem.
    Du stevnet din kurs, hvad så andre har ment,
    når du trodde den rett og sann - !
    Så hvil deg, borger, det er fortjent !
    Din plass er i solen, - tidlig og sent
    du gagnet, du bygget ditt land - !

    Sværen ble så overrakt et gullkjede, 6 spiseskjeer og 2 syltetøyskjeer i sølv fra kretsen, to elektriske lamper fra lærerlaget og 1 hundrekronerseddel fra en rikmann i bygda.

    Det ble bevertning og hyggelig samvær utover kvelden, og til slutt takket Sværen rørt for gavene og talene, og for alt godt gjennom de mange år.

    Anecdote2:
    Han var en rikt utstyrt mann, både for åndens og håndens gjerning. Han hadde en glimrende klar intelligens, et glimrende minne, en egen evne til å fortelle kvikt og morsomt og endelig en fin musikalsk åre.

    Han var også svært hendig og utstyrt med tekniske evner. Det var næsten ikke den ting han ikke kunde.

    I sine fristunder arbeider han pianoer og husorgler og gjør meget vakkert sløidarbeide, og drev også som orgel- og pianostemmer.

    Det sies at han laget de fineste møbler, en mengde orgler og flere deilige pianoer.

    Han sydde selv sine støvler, og knep det, var han også litt av en smed.
