Looking For Birth Records in Telemark
afemriteHey I'm trying to find two birth records in Telemark, Norway. The first is for Kittel Danielson Hetterud b. 3 Jun 1824 to Daniel Kittilsen Edingsaas and Liv Knutsdatter. Kittel is also known as Kittel Danielson Djuve. The second person I am looking for is Anlaug Ostensdatter (Aasteensdatter) b. Jan 1822. They were married in Boe and had a son named Even Kittilsen Hetterud b. 8 May 1849. There are also supposed records of them in Saurherad Lutheran Church though I don't know of what. Anlaugs birth record (1847) gives her birth year as 1818. Many thanks, Angela Femrite
HopkinsYou can order microfilm copies of Sauherad, Telemark records for years as early as 1649 at your nearest LDS Family History Center. The marriage in Bø would be in the microfilm copies of that parish's church records, the LDS library collection for Bø, Telemark are available for years as early as 1689. When you search in the LDS library catalog make sure you spell those locations as Sauherad or Bo (Bø). http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~norway/na20.html
afemriteThank you very much. I got new information that was able to lead me to the information and LDS helped out a great deal. Angela Femrite

afemriteWow, thank you very much. Where did you get the marriage of their parents and the name of the Slemlie farm? There was a reference to it, yet no one could tell what it was with the spelling. When I looked on LDS I couldn't find a marriage record for the parents, did I overlook it or was it some other source? Thank you so much, it is difficult for me to research Telemark, I am so used to researching Sogn og Fjordane where they have a single website with all the information. *laughs* I guess I've gotten spoiled by it.

DALBThis data will be in the LDS parish films for Bøe. I have access to the transcipts of some of the parish records. Check out the Telemark Lag http://www.telelaget.com/ If you have ancestors that emigrated from Telemark, enter their data in the Database for the Coming Home project.
