Kontaktforum Hadeland-Amerika
 |
Kontaktforum Hadeland-Amerika was formed in 2002. It seeks to encourage and enhance cooperative efforts among the Gran Historical Society, Lunner Historical Society, Jevnaker Historical Society, and the Hadeland Lag of America. |
A
message from Kontaktforum in July of 2002:...Kontaktforum Hadeland-Amerika was established this winter. The biggest task for us will undoubtedly be our project to find out what happened to as many as possible of the emigrants from Hadeland after they went to America. This is a task which cannot be completed unless you help us. We have already received information about many of the emigrants, and we are very grateful for the good response we have received among the members of the Hadeland Lag for our big and important project. We know there is a lot of material about the emigrants and their descendants and we greatly appreciate all that we receive. We also hope that those who have not written down the story of their family from Hadeland will begin soon; this is both an enjoyable and important task, which we are certain that our descendants will appreciate what we have done.
Thank you for all that we have received so far and we wait for more.

YOUR HELP IS NEEDED!
|
|
KHA is looking for more information about some emigrants and their families.
|
|
KHA has located emigrants in Norwegian records, but has no information about them once they left Hadeland. |
The Lag hopes all descendants of Hadelendings will complete the "Hadeland
Immigrant Identification Form" that has been developed to collect the information necessary to meet its ambitious goals. You don't have to be a member of the Lag to provide the information, and doing so won't put you on a mailing list of any kind. To participate in this project use one of the links below:
| Fill out an on-line form that will automatically be emailed to KHA in Norway |
| Print a form that can be mailed to KHA in Norway (it will display in a new window) |
