Usage Tips

These are parish registers for Søndeled parish starting in 1746, when it split from Gjerstad clerical district. They include records for the state religion (Lutheran) but also for "dissenters". Many of these registers were microfilmed for the FHL library, and later digitized and made available online through the Norwegian Digital Archives (Digitalarkivet). The Digital Archives make available newer registers that were not part of the Family History Library microfilms.

Records prior to 1746 are covered by source:

Gjerstad, Aust-Agder, Norway. Kirkebøker

Some of the records covered by this source are copies of official records, from the time when Søndeled was part of Risør clerical district (1746 to 1877). Originals of these records are covered by source:

Risør, Aust-Agder, Norway. Kirkebøker, starting 1746

Note that Digitalarkivet includes searchable transcribed records for some of the registers - the transcription appears to be ongoing. The search has limited flexibility and does not appear to support soundex at this time.
