The Unusual Disappearance of Jul Torsteinson Hjelle: A Hande Family Mystery
(by D'Arcy Hande)
The mysterious disappearance of Jul Torsteinson Hjelle, both of whose wives were from the Hande farm in Norway, still remains unresolved after nearly two centuries. The evidence remains suspicious, but no answers will likely ever be found to this intriguing historical puzzle.
What is known about Jul is that he was born in Vestre Slidre parish, Valdres, in 1740, the son of Torstein Julson Kvaale and Gro Knutsdatter Hjelle. (Since Gro was the heiress of Hjelle farm, she and her husband lived there and, as was the custom in Norway, they took the farm name as their surname.)
Jul was married twice, first to Kari Jøgersdatter Hande (born in 1751 or 1752) from which came five children. Upon her death in 1787, Jul married again to Kari Reiersdatter Hande (born 1762) from which came another four children. Marit and Kari were distant cousins--Marit's father owned upper Hande farm, while Kari's father was a tenant on lower Hande farm.
It appears that in the 1700s Hjelle farm was owned by the parish and its tenancy was held on a lifetime basis and was inheritable. This tenancy was held jointly by Jul and his mother from 1786, but when she died two years later the entire tenancy would be his. In 1804. Jul and Marit's eldest son, named Torstein (born about 1775), took over half the tenancy. In 1811 Torstein took over the other half as well.
A curious sequence of events transpired in the years following 1808. In that year Hjelle farm was by royal proclamation made the farm of the commander of the Upper Valdres Company of musketeers, a military unit set up for the defence of Norway during the Napoleonic Wars.
These were turbulent times, in which the Norwegians were influenced by international affairs far beyond their control. Norway was governed by Denmark, which was allied with Napoleonic France against Great Britain and its supporters. Britain was the naval giant of the time and in 1807 had in retaliation imposed an effective blockade on Norway. Already dependent on foreign foodstuffs, the people of Norway were nearly brought to starvation when there was a domestic crop failure that same year. It was at this time that potatoes were first introduced as an alternative food supply. The next year, the Danish king declared war on Sweden, bringing Norway into conflict with its eastern neighbor. (This in turn led to Swedish domination of Norway after 1814.)
International politics were thus to have far-reaching consequences for the Hjelle family. The commandant of the Upper Valdres Company was Captain Adam Beck, who had high ambitions. Although he did not live on the farm himself, he evicted the tenants from the farmstead and renovated it to suit the grandeur to which he aspired. The former residents had to set up new cotter's quarters on the farm. By 1813 Beck's successor as company captain (who also happened to be his son-in-law) moved onto the farm where he would live until 1851. This was Captain Otto Friedrich Mueller, who became a wealthy, colorful personality in the district, best known as the model for the character Captain Jaeger in a popular novel of the time, Familien Paa Gilje (The Family at Hjelle) written by Jonas Lie and illustrated by Erik Werenskiold.
But returning to Jul Torsteinson Hjelle, a story about him comes down to us from those times, published in the book, I Manns Minne: Gamal Valdreskultur III (1944). It seems that the expulsion of Jul and his family from their home by the Upper Valdres Company in 1808 caused them great hardship, leaving them with no shelter or sustenance other than that provided through the goodwill and generosity of others. Unable to obtain justice from the intractable Captain Beck, Jul set off over the uplands to the neighboring valley of Gudbrandsdal to seek redress. Gudbrandsdal was where the larger towns of Lillehammer and Hamar are located, so he may have wished to approach the courts to resolve his grievance. However, he failed to reach his destination; he was never seen or heard of again. The following summer his travel bag, provisions and some other belongings were found beneath an evergreen near the trail. In retrospect, a suspicion of foul play, even murder, has lingered in the minds of his descendants.
Captain Beck, who might have easily been the prime suspect in this bizarre disappearance, is also known as Major Beck in the Norwegian records, indicating he had an advancement in his military career. Although in upper-class circles he was regarded as a pillar of the community, he was intensely disliked by his troops and many of his neighbors. On one occasion at least, he was lynched and beaten by unknown local vigilantes. In fact, after Beck's death it was claimed that his ghost still haunted the community, striking terror into the hearts of the local inhabitants. The parish pastor was commissioned to exorcise Beck's ghost. At the churchyard, it is said, he succeeded in putting the ghost to rest after a valiant struggle with the spirit world!
But what became of the family Jul so unexpectedly left behind? Of the nine children he had by his two Hande wives, only one, Ingri (born 1780) appears to have predeceased him. The eldest daughter Gro (born 1772) had married Nils Alvsen Tvenge in 1800. Torstein, who took the Hjelle tenancy over in 1811, went on to a court challenge of Capt. Mueller's custody of the farm in 1821, assisted by an uncle. This action won compensation of 100 dollars from the Captain. Torstein married twice and had at least six children as a tenant on the Hjelle farm.
Halstein Julson (born 1784) married and went on to live on the Jarstad farm in Vestre Slidre parish.
Marit (born 1788), oldest in the second family, later went to live with her mother's brother Guttorm Reierson Hande (1756-1839), perhaps with her mother Kari, who died at the age of 66 years in 1828.
Reier (born 1791) married Marit Olsdatter Kirkevold, and they operated the Kirkevold farm that she inherited. He died in Vestre Slidre at the age of 100 years and is said to have gone up to the summer pastures just the year before he died! Of their five children, Ola (born 1828) later moved to the Grefsrud farm and became the great-grandfather of Norman Braaten of Maple Grove, Minnesota, and Gunhild (1840-1866?) became the first wife of Peder Halvorson Hande and has many descendants in Polk County, northern Minnesota.
What became of Juel's three other children, Jøger (born 1782), Ola (born 1794) and Ingebiør (born 1796) is unknown.
If rocks could tell the stories they have heard, or if we could climb into a time-machine, we might try to resolve this family mystery so long after the actual events occurred! What was the case that Jul was preparing against an obvious injustice done by the bureaucracy of his day? How did he meet his end up on the highlands between Valdres and Gudbrandsdal? Was he a victim of a murder most foul, and was Major Beck implicated? Was he attacked by animals (maybe even trolls!) in that wilderness region? Or did the harsh elements cause his demise? How did his family manage to survive this obvious blow to their fortunes? Unfortunately, we may never know the answers to all these intriguing questions.
