'''Mid-1700s:''' During this time period, a clerical census called a "Register of Souls" (''sjeleregister'') was taken. It is more of a true census than the previous ones listing all members of a family and all persons living with the family. Most of these records have been lost, but they have been preserved for some areas. Rogaland is the only county for which the entire 1758 census is preserved. Some "Register of Souls" can be found in the parish registers. | '''Mid-1700s:''' During this time period, a clerical census called a "Register of Souls" (''sjeleregister'') was taken.
