I have names of family members in Norway but I would like to locate them. My brother my nephew and myself are travelling to Norway and were hoping to make contact with one or two of them. I was hoping to give it to a Family history society to post it in the Stryn area. Is there such a group

It doesn't look like there is one in Stryn municipality, but you could send a mail to Stryn public library, and check with them. They might have other options on how to proceed as well...

Jostedal Historical Society from the neighboring municipality Luster.
