Has anyone information on the 1891 Norway census? I have read it has not been digitized, but I wonder if it is in any way accessible.

See http://www.ssb.no/histstat/artikler/art-2006-07-27-01.html

First paragraph: "I 1891 var befolkningen i Norge rett i overkant av 2 millioner. Nærmere 7400 personer levde som rentenister og kapitalister, mens nesten 9000 personer brukte stall og fjøs til nattelosji. Les mer i folketellingen fra 1891 som nå er tilgjengelig i sin helhet i PDF-format på ssb.no".

Haven't tried it though....

There is information about all of the Norwegian censuses in this article. I especially like to study what the questions were on each census.
