These are some of the sites I have been using to trace my family tree.
Some of them have information on Norway and the others are on Norwegian
genealogy. These are some great sites, I hope you'll enjoy going through
them as much as I have. Goodluck in your own searches!
I am currently researching the name KAASEN. Tjostov Kaasen was born in
1685 and died in 1730 on the Kaasen(Kosi)farm, the farm was located in
Bratsberg which I believe is now called Telemark, in the parish Mo, sub-parish
Skafsa. I have no record of his father or mother, or where they may of
come from. Most of my family came from Evje, Aust-Agder, Norway, this is
where my Grandfather, Halvor Selmer Amandus AASLAND, lived before he came to Canada in 1920. The family
originally came from Mo, and the surrounding area, in Vest-Telemark. If
anyone has any information on the name or area please let me know!!
I am also looking for any information on the CENSUS OF 1663-1666 OF NORWAY,
it was carried out predominantly by the Danish Crown.
