He married Asgjerd.  The Vinjes were on the top rung in  the bonder class in Norway. According to probate records, Trond and Asgjerd owned books. They had a library that included copies of the "Iliad" and "Saxo Grammaticus."  It was unusual for families of that time to own a church book - so this is a strong indication of both the education and economic status of the family!
