    3. I don't know how long this map site has been around, but I've had it marked in my Bookmarks Toolbar so long I can't remember where I even found the link. It seems to be an adaptation of the Norgeskart map site, only with the parish map you have the option of showing the parish boundaries with the inserted right menu (which can be reduced or expanded), and you can search for a farm with the menu on the left (which can also be reduced, then clicked back to full view again). Experiment by clicking and unclicking the boxes in the right menu to see what I mean. http://www.norgeskart.no/ Whichever site you use, as always, Zoom is your friend, as is Windows/PrtScr to make a screen shot of the map - re-name it, crop off the edges in your Paint (or other graphic) program, you have a nice graphic to go with your genealogy images and you can see exactly where your ancestors lived in relation to other farm names in the area. ;-) Okay, so I'm a map freak and I have a special file just for maps.... :-) Beste, Bev On 4/28/2017 2:47 PM, Cliff Magnussen wrote: > I just ran across this on another site, someone has made a map of all the parish’s and farms in > Norway , I found it very easy to use an will be a great help if someone wants to find what > Parish’s are in what county, ENJOY!!!! > > http://norwayparishes.com/ > >
