Mormon records

[Annette Earl]

I understand that there were Records were gathered by the Norwegian government agencies regarding members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) between 1851 and 1878. These include files kept by the Department of Justice in Section JPD - Trossamfunn Samling - Mormon Pakke. My ancestors were members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints between 1851 and 1878. How do I access these files. 

There names were:

Anna Cajsa Jansdotter born in Sweden in 1832,

Ole Nielsen, born in Sweden in 1825

Josephine Olsdatter, born in Norway in 1858

Britta Mina Olsdatter, born in Norway in 1860

 

Any help would be appreciated.

I guess it might be these items you are searching for:

 

-      Trossamfunn: Mormonerpakken RA/S-1040/E/E05/L0001, catalogue here:
https://arkivportalen.no/entity/no-a1450-01000001696788?ins=RA
 

-      Mormonerne RA/S-1007/D/Dc/L0239/0007, about Norwegian parishes abroad, catalogue here:
https://arkivportalen.no/entity/no-a1450-01000000152902?ins=RA
 

None of them seems to be published in the Digital Archives

 

Unfortunately we don’t answer requests related to hobby purposes in material that are available at our reading rooms.  In case you can’t go to Oslo yourself, you either have to get someone else to do the research(you could ask other genealogists in the users forum) or you can try to get the actual records published in our Digital Archives through our service called “Digitalisering på forespørsel”

@Anita Riise - Arkivverket Sidan tenesta "Digitalisering på forespørsel" ikkje er i engelsk versjon er det vel eit spørsmål om ikkje Digitalarkivet like godt bør hjelpe trådstartar med å få lagt inn ein slik forespørsel?

Jeg er på Riksarkivet nå og har tittet i de forespurte arkivsakene. Her var det bare korrespondanse om menighetene vedr. godkjenning mm. Ingen medlemsregistre å se.

 

I am at the National Archives now and have looked in the requested archive cases. Here there were only correspondence about the congregations regarding approval etc. No membership registers to see.
