Norway Lookup Volunteer

I will do a Bygdebok Lookup within any of the volumes listed at the bottom of the page. Check out the list of farms contained in these Bygdebok volumes. Information about your ancestors may be in these volumes. Send an email to me, Rolene Britson.

This is an alphabetical list of the farms (gards) included in the Bygdebok volumes that I own. This list includes only the "primary" names (gard) and does not include sub farms (bruk).

When using this list do not forget about the influence of the Norwegian alphabet and also the changes made over the years and by Americans. So look under both “O” and “Ø” and under both “K” and “C” for example. Also remember to look under the name with a Nedre, Øvre, Store, Litle etc preceding it. Occasionally you will also see alternate names in parentheses.

The Bygdebok (County Book) List is located at the bottom of the page.

The Farms are in the following Bygdebok Volumes;

Skåre. Arne Langhelle, Svein Ivar Langhelle, Nils Olav Østrem. Gard og folk I Skåre. Haugesund Kommune 1999. Bind 1, 2.
