Norway: Direct link to emigration databases

[janrm]

As there seems to be quite  lot of interest in Norwegian Genelogy in New Zealand, I have copied this link pointing directly to the emigration databases in digitalarkivet:

http://www.digitalarkivet.no/cgi-win/WebMeta.exe?slag=vismeny&fylkenr=&knr=&aar=&dagens=&katnr=5&alle=true

Tried one of them, and it returns some 900 people with destination "New Zealand"

Hmmm.

I tried to make the link point to the English edition of this, but it obviously didn't work!

I reckon Rootschatters will handle it anyway!

Scroll down to the bottom of the page, there is a button for english there.

(this goes against the "usual" rules for web-site design, where other languages are usually offered at the top of the page)

Thanks Bob!

It looks like this link takes us to the English frontpage though...

I have also noticed that there are quite a few Swedish people in these databases as well...

Thanks for the link - I'm still trying to wade through it.
I seem to be going in circles -  just when i think I've found something interesting - I'm taken back to the start
 But I have to admit that it is the closest I've come to my elusive Gt Grandfather yet,  so I'll just keep on trying.

Hi!

Genealogy seems to be almost "folk sport" down under...!

If you provide the basics you've got we could try your ancestor as a
"case study" on the board...?

(no guarantee though)
