DEFINITIONS:<br>SKIPREIE (Skiprede): An area that was assigned to outfit a ship for military use. Its size was determined according to the number of farms in the area and did not usually include the entire parish. A skipreie may therefore include a number of farms of a given parish while another skipreie may include the remaining farms in the same parish. A skipreie was not confined to a parish border and may include farms in several parishes. As the population grew and there were more people in a given area, the skipreie became smaller and smaller. Today a skipreie (skipsrederi) is just a factory in a city or town where ships are being built. | DEFINITIONS:<br>SKIPREIE (Skiprede): An area that was assigned to outfit a ship for military use.

FJERDING (FIERDING): An old administration jurisdiction which sub-divided a county, district (herred), and sometimes also a skipreide. It was not the only jurisdiction used for the whole country in the middle ages, but it seemed to have been one of importance for the church and state. It is the remnant of an ancient system and was still being used in Rogaland county in conjunction with larger court districts even in the 1700s and 1800s. | |||
FOGDERI: The office and district of the Fogd (bailiff). In the early 1500s Norway was divided into 4 major len (counties) with Fogds (bailiff) in-charge of them. Norway was also divided into many smaller Godslen (Estates). Later there were several divisions of the len, and each of these len included one of more fogderi(er). There was a major change around 1640 and these districts where at that time changed to basically what they still were as late as the late 1800s. From about 1640 the Fogderi was a court district which was also used as the probate record jurisdictions for Norway. | |||
MATRIKKEL: A record or a list of farm property. The farms are usually listed in topographic order and include a farm-number and division number (bruks nummer).
