Genealogical
Research, mainly in Middle and Northern Norway
Welcome to my site,
that mainly deals with genealogy, which to me is
hobby as well as profession. Here I will
introduce myself a little bit, and my work to a
much larger extent. I am also publishing here
collections that may
be of help to genealogy researchers, who are
seeking ancestors or relatives, who may have
appeared out of the blue, and/or disappeared into
the blue. This is at least my hope. All this is
of course from records of Middle and Northern
Norway.

My work
For 22 years I have been helping people with
their genealogy research, and to some extent by
translating documents in German hand into modern
print.
I have also collected information from the
archives for local book committees and authors. Read more. |
'My Area'
My working area is mainly determined by the
records kept in the State Archive of Trondheim,
for the districts of Møre & Romsdal,
Sør-Trøndelag, Nord-Trøndelag and Nordland,
which is the circled area on the map to the
right. See more details on the page Archives and other Resources. |
A few data bases
Here you will find my notes from the justice
protocols on strays, etc, (only Norwegian text),
and from the parish registers on Non-Norwegian
visitors who have left illegitimate children in
"My area" (only in English).
These notes are not complete, and more will be
added later. I also made lists of Non-Norwegians
who died here. See: Fremmede,
Foreign visitors
and Foreign dead. |
Background
I am M.A. with history as subsidiary object. I
started doing genealogy as a hobby in 1968. I
have been professional since 1979, full-time
since 1983. See examples of my investigations and
references to my publications. |
