[Clark Monson]

I am trying to find what parish in Norway a man named Nels H. Volland was born. He was born in 1863 and as a child went to America in about 1867 or 1868. Thank you very much! Clark Monson

Høres Nord Norsk ut.

 

Sør og Østlandet: Voldene

 

Årdal og Finnås: Voldene.

 

Men:

 

Sør Trøndelag, boyth Horg in Støren and Vedøy has the farm names Volland

Nord Trøndelag, Stod has the farm name Volland

Nordland: Øxnes has Voldene and Gimsøe in Vågan has the farm name Volland

 

Maybe the farm name might have been spelt "Vollan", plur. of "field" or something like that?

Meaning of the farm name Vollan (Volland)

 

 

b.14, s.248: Older spellings:

19. Vollan. Udt. vå2LLaNN, Dat. -Løm. -- Woldum 1624. 1631.

Woldumb 1626. Vollumb 1664. Vollum 1723.

 

*Vellir, Flt. af v&bmaapeno;llr m., Vold, Græsslette; her i best. Form. Means: Field, a plase where grass grows.

 

 

In the 1801 census, it is spelled Wolland at least one place:

47646 Søndre Trondhiem Støren Horrig Wolland 1648 (Horg)

50613 Nordre Trondhiem Størdalen Schatvold Annex Wollan 1714

54672 Nordland Scherstads Schjerstads Wollan 1842

 

And you also fint fte form Volland

46292 Romsdal Sundal Romfoe Volland 1563

47159 Søndre Trondhiem Bynes Wiggen Vollan 1655

47465 Søndre Trondhiem Meelhuus Lindstranden Vollan 1653

50782 Nordre Trondhiem Størdalen Merager Annex Vollan 1714

 

 

 

 

So Niels might have been born at a Volland farm,in 1862/63, or his father or mother came from a Volland farm, or maybe they moved to a Volland farm before they left for America about 1867/1868 and took the Volland name that way.

 

Example:

A sister of my great grandmother used to be called Øygrei until she married. Then she moved to another farm and took the new farm name. Her husband died, and a year before she left Norway, she lived at Berge in Helleland while a daughter had her babt. confirmed in the church. That is the only time I found the family at Berge. It took me some work to find her again in America, now she called herself Mrs Berg.

Perhaps it is this family:
