Thanks a lot for this information.

What is a "cotter place"?

Again, thanks.

This link is a semi-description of a cotter! Googling is great!

This link might have a better description.

I have searched parishes in and around Oslo for Randine Amundsdatter who married Wold.

My question is, what is the best way to find someone who lives in Norway now and is a grandchild of this person. This was my grandfather's sister. I would very much like to correspond with a family member. I have some photos that they sent to my grandfather years ago.

Do people advertize in the newspapers when they are trying to find someone? What is your suggestion?

Thanks.

In the database "Dodsfall i Norge 1995-april 2001(1947-2001)", I found that Anna Ingeborg Wold died on January 29, 1995.

It lists an Office as: Hadeland og Land sorenskriverembete. What does this mean.

Is it possible to find an obituary for this person that would list surviving children?

Thanks again for your help.

Hadeland and Land is an area for a "sorenskriver" - district recorder - you will see Land as no. 0536 (lower left) if you click on Oppland county on this map http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/norkart/index-eng.htm
I am not aware of any possibility to find obituaries in Norway - maybe someone else are.

I found on the website: http://www.disnorge.no/gravminner/bilde.php?id=1587099 the grave of an Anna Ingeborg Wold. There is a slight difference in the date that we have in the census and parish records, but I want to determine if this Anna Ingeborg Wold is the daughter of Ranine Amundsdatter Wold.

Would you have an address, phone number or e-mail address for the Nordstrand Parish?

Thanks for your help.

Arden Anderson.
