I would consider 165cM over 9 segments with the largest segment being 30cM isn't noise or an error.

My initial thoughts are that you have a mystery Norwegian ancestor within the last 2 to 4 generations.

Has the option to edit (incoherent!!) posts disappeared from the site?

I agree.  Build an extensive 4/5 generation tree including all siblings and their descendants.

Check out online trees. Although they are not always accurate, they may be.

Also look at shared matches. Having a Norwegian match who is interested is really helpful as they may be able to help with research over there.

hurworth, I think you can edit posts within 24 hours but not delete them.  You can always ask a moderator for help.

There used to be an edit button, but it's not there at the moment.   

Are you seeing an edit button next to your posts?

It's "Modify". It should be next to "Quote".
