Boka Om Land: Østsinni : grend, bosted, familie

Gordon Collett

Does anyone have access to this bygdebok who could post images of its table of contents here?

Hi Gordon, the FamilySearch Library in Salt Lake City has an 11 volume set for Boka Om Land but none of them is titled "Boka Om Land: Østsinni : grend, bosted, familie". However, there is a volume (Volume 8) titled "Boka Om Land: Nordsinni : grend, bosted, familie".

I have looked at the Title page, Table of Contents and Indexes of each book and Østsinni is only mentioned in the Index of one of the history books (no genealogical information).

Thanks for checking. The Land bygdebok is up to 18 volumes now and the one that covers Østsinni is volume 15.

If the library is interested, has the funds, and and you are someone that can make a request, the additional volumes are:

Vol. 12 - Boka om Land: Skihistorien i Nordre Land

Vol. 13 - Boka om Land: Skihistorien i Søndre Land

Vol. 14 - Boka om Land: Sagn og huldrehistorier : folkeminner fra Land og omegn

Vol. 15 - Boka om Land: Østsinni : grend, bosted, familie

Vol. 16 - Boka om Land: Fjernsætring : en 400 år lang historie fra det indre østlandet

Vol. 17 - Boka om Land: Dokka : stasjonsbyen - villabyen - landsbyen

Vol. 18 - Boka om Land: Odnes : et knutepunkt ved Randsfjorden

From the titles, some of these appear more historical and cultural than genealogical.

I will pass that information on. It would be nice to have those additional volumes in the Library.

Thank you @Gordon Collett, we will look into the possibility of acquiring these books for the library. We are always eager to add to our bygdebok collection, even historical volumes.
