Bø - Telemark bygdebook lookups week 28
BorgeI now have the 4 volumes of the Bø - Soga (Telemark) and will offer to do lookups in week 28 - 2002, on the condition that you provide sufficient data, and that you know that the people you are looking for actually were from the area. The books does not have a register of persons, so it will be quite time consuming finding people in the books if you do not provide the right information. Børge Solem

I can give you what the 1865 census reported: Data on domicile: Census year: 1865 Municipality: Bø Municipality number: 0821 Name of domicile: Aarmodte Number of persons in this domicile: 10. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Name Family status Marital status Occupation Birth year Birth place Ethnicity Niels Tollefsen Husfader g Husmand med Jord og Tømmermand 1812 Bø Prgj.

One of the daughters, Aslaug (not reported with the family because she was a servant girl with another family at the time), is a direct ancestor, my great great grandmother on my father's mother's side of the family.

BorgeHi Jan My post about lookups was for week 28, year 2002. I do not have access to those books any longer. Maybe someone else does?
