Parish List

Knowing which parish your ancestors came from is vital to Norwegian research. The parish listing has been divided into subsections due to the size of each file. Each list is alphabetically organized according to the modern Norwegian standard which is:

A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z, Æ, Ø, Å.
