Feel free to request a look-up from the following books. Please limit your request to ONE ancestor. Also, please put NORWAY LOOKUP in the subject line of your request to insure the message is not overlooked or accidentally deleted.

Important Message from one of the Lookup Volunteers:

" . . . To help me with your research, success is determined by good information you send. To find your ancestors in my parish films or other databases, please include the following information : parents, spouses, children, their brothers, sisters and any dates of immigration, births & christenings of any of the above mentioned relatives. Also all locations of any known residences, birthplaces, are extremely helpful. When the research is in Norway, any known farm names will assist me to help you. By including this information, it will eliminate the need to query you for these details. I am happy to help you with your research, please include your name and where you found my volunteer help. Thanks."

I have the family books (slektsbokene) for the municipalities Norderhov, Hole and Tyristrand. Theese books only tells about the farms and the peoples living there, but covers the period from about 1600 – 1920-

I can also do lookups in some churchbooks  for  Hole, Norderhov, Honefoss, and Aadal municipalities for the period 1800- 1926.

MARRIAGES: Alta / Talvik from 1735 to 1752
Alta / Talvik 1866 to 1875
Tana from 1851 to 1877
Kjøllefjord /Lebesby /Tana from 1751 to 1851

I also have a copy of all the farm names in the parishes in Finnmark

I have a complete set of bygdeboks Sør Odal (8 vols) and Nord Odal (5 vol), Hedmark.

I need a place name to do lookups as there is no person name index.  Please see website for index over place names for each volume on my website http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~hedmark/

I can do lookups in ”Vaksdal Bygdebok Band 3; Stamnes sokn – Gards- og ættesoge 1965”

I have got the reprint of the old (issued ca 1950) bygdebok for Varaldsøy and Strandbarm.  They were separate "Kommuner" at that time, but so small that they gave out a joint bygdebok :-). The reference to the farm list of Hordaland must be added here too.

I also have the "Bygdebok for Odda, Ullensvang and Kinsarvik." Author: Olav Kolltveit, issued in the 1970's. An overview over farmnames can be found at DIS Hordaland's site: http://ho.disnorge.no/bboker/index.php. The upper line is index for the fam names which is registered by now (not complete for all "kommuner"). To get info an each bygdebok, chooose the kommune you found your farm in.

I can also offer lookups in "Røldal bygdebok" by Knut and Alma Dalen, issued in 1960. This can take sometime, because I have to borrow the book at the library. DIS Hordaland has also maps of different parts of the county on their site.
