Thankyou Elinar and Birger but I don't read norwegian. Go back to my post 17066 This is my ancester I am looking for I think from Stordalen Whereis it and can you find a birh record For John L (Steen) america must be Larsen in Norway . can you help me with norwegian Thankyou Kay

The spelling is rather important in this case. 'Stordal' (stor = large, dal = valley, dale). As Birger points out 'Stordal' is to be found all over Norway.In context to thread 17066 the place in question is obviously Stjørdal. Kay, you probably have a problem typing the norwegian letters, but don't leave out the 'j'. Stjoerdal is perhaps the best substitute.Lenkemvh EAa
