Usage Tips

These are the parish registers for the parishes in Hommedal 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.

Note: Herefoss parish was moved to its own clerical district (along with Vegusdal parish from Evje clerical district and Mykland parish from Åmli clerical district) in 1875. Records for Herefoss parish after 1875 are covered by source:

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.
