He farmed Bøkko from 1830-1840 with the help of his son Jon, who was the owner from 1830 (age 15) and who took over farming in 1840, giving them a pension that consisted of 2 barrels of barley, 2 cows, 1 heifer, 4 goats and sheep, the southern most storehouse, the use of a 1 mål parcel of land on North Klokkarhaug, lower part, with right to cultivate 1 mål of it, and the pasture land Neståkerreina. Jon's whole family emigrated in the spring of 1850. Trond Ø. Bø Ellingbø emigrated to Minnesota in 1853. Trond Ivarsson Uvdal took over Bøkko 1850, but emigrated to America in the spring of 1862. Øystein and his wife moved back to N. Bø in ca. 1865. The farm was divided into three subfarms, two under Bagetun and one under Nordigarden Ellingbø. In 1867 and 1868 (when Trond Øysteinsson returned to Vang) the farm was divided into four parts (See Vang A, p. 582), the main part being Bøkko (#33/3). Trond Ivarsson sold Bøkko to Knut Ivarsson Eltun for 500 spd. on 25 April 1868. It is said that it was Embrik and Helge Ellingbø who bought Bøkko from Trond and sold a half part to Knut, and that Jon Endresson and Torstein (son of Helge) took over each of the remaining half parts.
