[#18034] Fostervold, Ole from More og Romsdal

[Gjest Nancy (Fostervold) Halvorson]

Just received some photo copies from the archives of The Norwegian-American Historical Association at St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota. It was written that Ole Fostervold (born 1881) traveled for awhile as a missionary in the 'West Land Inner Mission' after attending the Framnes school. Can someone explain what 'West Land' was to me? Thanks, Nancy

Hello Nancy!I think West Land Innermision' must be what we today call 'Vestlandske indremisjonsforbund'. This mission was also the owner of Framnes Folkehøgskule' and is also the owner of Framnes today. I will try to send you some more information about this by E-mail.Helga K.
