This falls in the categorgy of Movable Feasts. In the Catholic and Lutheran religions almost every Sunday and many other days are considered movable feasts, so they fall on a different day each year. Easter is an example. In 1806 H3K (we call it Epiphany), which is always January 6th, fell on a Monday. So 1st Sunday after H3K in 1806 was the 12th. The 3rd Sunday was the 26th. I am including a site I use to get the dates without having to figure them out for myself. https://familysearch.org/wiki/en/Moveable_Feast_Day_Calendar_for_Norway Good luck on your research.
