In the UK their are voters registers or we have telephone directory’s – which give details of present residents. Does Norway have any similar ways of finding out about present residents?
Is there anyone on the Slektsforum living in the Kvalavåg area who is willing to be contacted regarding my enquiry or knows any information that may be useful to me.
