If I need to find information in the Arkivet for someone born abt 1590 and died about 1655, how would I look it up? The name is Trond Hausa. It appears to me that the records don't go back that far, yet I found the birth and death in another family tree. But it didn't list any sources.
Are there other sources that would help with the old records? I don't want to use the information in some else's tree without finding the proof myself.
Thanks for any help you may be able to give me.

Trond Siursen Hausa was bap. "Dom. 16. p. Trinit" Sept. 8. 1695 (it correspond with the scanned church book).
Seems like you have a distant cousin in N. Carolina 
Lots of info in this familytree which most likely comes from Sogndal Bygdebook, Stedje sub parish.
Trond Siursen is nr 98.

This is a different Trond. The Trond Hausa in this topic lived 1590-1655.
"The best men in the village?"
A study of the peasant elite in Sogndal parish; 1647-1707. (Master's Thesis in History - University of Bergen, 2011)
Trond Husum is listed as the only landowner in Sogndal in 1647.

| Thanks for the information about finding some of the really old records. I think the best thing for me to do is make a trip to Madison, Wisconsin to the Norwegian American Historical Society and Naeseth Library. I am especially interested in the "best men in the village" work. I am sure someone there can help me translate the information. I try to figure out what the records are saying, such as the tax register and court record but sometimes I can't find the words I am looking for in Norwegian dictionaries. |
