WikiTree had previously given him a brother Hr. Jens Andersen, kantor in Trondheim and vicar in Verdal. However, neither Erlandsen nor Dahl has any knowledge of Jens' background. Additionally, Roald Andersen left notes about his family with no mention of any brother Jens, and since Jens was student in 1554 and Roald was student in 1593, this connection has now been broken.
