Usage Tips

These are parish registers for parishes included in Østre (Austre) Moland clerical district starting in 1747, including Østre (Austre) Moland, Stokken, Barbu (until 1877) and Tromøy (until 1877) parishes. 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.

Prior to 1747, Østre Moland was part of the Holt clerical district - records prior to 1747 are covered by source:

Holt, Aust-Agder, Norway. Kirkebøker

Barbu registers after 1877 are covered by source:

Barbu, Aust-Agder, Norway. Kirkebøker, starting 1878

Tromøy registers after 1877 are covered by the following source (which overlaps this source by including a partial set of Tromøy records from 1747 to 1877):

Tromøy, Aust-Agder, Norway. Kirkebøker, starting 1747

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.
