My current research up my family line has taken me to the Rørøs area in the 1700's and in particular Bakken and Kuraasen farms.

Is anyone aware of an on-line resource for the farms in the Rørøs area?
I found the Wiki-Strinda to be very useful for the Strinda area farms (Tesli, Jacobsli) and hoping to find something anything for Rørøs.
So far I haven't had much luck in my google searches.

Or perhaps there is a book I can order? I have a wonderful book on the farms in the Ringebu Area that was given to me on a visit there.

Thanks,
Michael
