Also, since most of these references are under copyright it is not be possible to copy pages. Should you determine that a reference contains a considerable amount of information that you need, you may want to consider an inter-library loan.
There are currently 788 farms located in eight Hordaland and Rogaland County parishes included on the lookup lists.To obtain a lookup, send an E-Mail message to the volunteer or ask on the Norwegian Heritage mailing list. You must indicate either the name of the farm, the book, and page number; or for books with name indices, the book and person name.
