[#32393] Bygdebok

[Gjest Bjørg Little]

While in Norway next week, I am interested in buying a Bygdebok. The 'gård' that my farfar's family grew up on was 'Staaby' near Flekkefjord, and 'Aase' which I believe is in Egersund. Would I find information on these in the Egersund Bygdebok? Tusen takk for hjelpen.

Ståby (Staaby) is located in Nes parish. Take a look at this link Lenke

I can find Aase in Liknes municipality (now Kvinesdal municipality). There are 3 bygdebøker from Kvinesdal Lenke

Kvinesdal bygdebok 1 and 2 contains information about farms and families, book 3 information about the history of the municipality.

There are several 'Aase' farms in the county (fylke) Rogaland also - among them 11 in Egersund: [url="http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/WebReg.exe?slag=vislista&register=gard&amt=11>Lenke (Census 1900).I am not sure if any of these 'bygdebøker' for Egersund

[Gjest Espen Grønna Brataker]

Sorry, Kvinesdal is wrong place. I thought Egersund was in Vest-Agder county, but Egersund is in Rogaland.
