Why not use Google for Coat of Arms (=Våpenskjold), and Bumerker.
What you are looking for with Farm Adress find is not clear. Maybe Rygh can be helpful link. |

If you are trying to locate bumerke that could be associated with a particular person of special interest to you than you'll need to research in the right area. I've sometimes found bumerke included in published bygdebøker that I was using for particular areas of Norway for my own families history. I've also used bygdebøker that did not include such graphics and made no mention of same. It is somewhat possible that a genealogy or historical society in the area of your specific interest MIGHT have info of old bumerke of the district.
Coats of arms would have been extremely rare in Norway and only associated with the very very 'upper class' or royals.
A farm's name was its address so that part of your query makes no sense to me.

| Sorry the farm address is where exactly I could find it on a map, I'm not sure if a historical society in Norway or a church parish may have coordinates to where the Rolles farm actually existed, all I know is that it was located in Sande Vestfold and the parish records were from both Botne and Sande parishes. I just figured it would be nice to have an idea of where exactly the farm may have been. Were the farms back then more of a community or a a single household with ranching and farming |

I've often found maps of where the farms, including old farms, were located in published bygdebøker. Not with coordinates though - that is a modern thing not in use back in the day.
You hadn't mentioned WHERE you were hoping to find this information but now that you have my brief notes show that both Sande and Botne in Vestfold have been the subject of published bygdebøker. “Botne bygdebok”, 3 volumes by Egil Kristoffer Sanner and Sigurd H. Unneberg “Sandeboka, Bygdebok for Sande i Vestfold”, by unknown author. |
