I am trying to find out how to get a birth certificate for my father who was born in Norway. He was raised on the Farsund farm in Fjorde Norway. I believe his father was Ludvig Tollevsen Farsund.
Also is there any way to find out mailing addresses or email addresses of people in Norway. I was in contact with my uncles grand daughter, Linda Evebo until about 2 years ago but havent heard from her in a long time. I think I do have relatives still in Norway but it is difficult to communicate cause they dont speak English ( except Linda Evebo does)
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
Linda

Hi,
this topic is almost a year old, so chances are that Leplin are not using this forum anymore...

However; here is Ludvig Tollefsen, Farsund farm in Førde, Sogn og Fjordane:
1865-census
1900-census

Ludvig Tollefsen (born 1857) and wife Johanne Nilsdatter (born 1870) have the following children i 1900:
Tomine Ludvigsdatter, born 1894
Oleanne Ludvigsdatter, born 1897
Nickolai Ludvigsen, born May 27th, 1899

Nikolai and two other brothers can also be found in the database "christened in Førde 1899-1903":

Nikolai Johan Ludvigsen, born 27 MAY 1899
Johan Emil Ludvigsen, born 03 JUL 1901
Jakob Olaf Ludvigsen, born 28 OCT 1903


Førde kyrkje, 6800 Førde, Sogn & Fjordane
