Looking for info about the Norwegian Police around 1900.
Specifically Bergen.
Applications, education, job details.
I've posted some inquiries on digark, but no replies.
Does anyone in this forum have any information?

Thanks.

If I was looking for that info in the US, I would contact either the police station in question or the local historical society.
Here is the e-mail address that I found for the Bergen police. Hopefully, they can direct you in the right area.
post.hordaland@politiet.no

Does someone have an address for a historical society in Bergen or Hordaland? I couldn't find one.

Good luck! Wanda

Thank you for your suggestions.
I have sent an email to those addresses - hope something comes back!

The individual I am researching may be found here. Any suggestions would be appreciated...
