1870 Norway Census

250,299 records

The 1870 census was conducted on December 31, 1870 in 60 cities and towns in Norway. The returns of 50 of these have survived and a full list of cities and towns included, by county, is shown in the extended description below. These census records contain the person’s name, gender, place-of-birth, year-of-birth, marital status, and place of residence. The original records additionally contain an inconsistently recorded “civil status” (borgerling stilling) field which varies from record to record, and when not empty, is most commonly an occupation and less frequently a relationship statement. This collection is provided through cooperation with the National Archives of Norway. Recognizing the need for updated information due to the rapid population growth in urban centers the government requested this special census of cities and towns to be conducted. A sample census form was provided but as the forms were designed and printed separately by each city the final forms used vary somewhat from place to place. Norwegian urban centers included were classified either as a kjøpstad (market town) or ladested (small seaport). The cities and towns included by county or municipal county are: Akershus:<ul><li>Drøbak</li><li>Hvitsten</li><li>Son</li></ul> Aust-Agder:<ul><li>Arendal</li><li>Grimstad</li><li>Lillesand</li><li>Risør</li><li>Tvedestrand</li></ul> Bergen:<ul><li>Bergen</li></ul> Buskerud:<ul><li>Drammen</li><li>Holmsbu</li><li>Hønefoss</li><li>Kongsberg</li></ul> Hedmark:<ul><li>Gjøvik</li><li>Kongsvinger</li></ul> Møre og Romsdal:<ul><li>Ålesund</li><li>Kristiansund</li><li>Molde</li></ul> Nord-Trøndelag:<ul><li>Levanger</li><li>Namsos</li><li>Steinkjer</li></ul> Nordland:<ul><li>Bodø</li></ul> Oppland:<ul><li>Lillehammer</li></ul> Oslo:<ul><li>Kristiania</li></ul> Østfold:<ul><li>Fredrikshald</li><li>Fredrikstad</li><li>Halden</li><li>Moss</li><li>Sarpsborg</li></ul> Rogaland:<ul><li>Egersund</li><li>Kopervik</li><li>Skudeneshavn</li><li>Sokndal</li></ul> Sogn og Fjordane:<ul><li>Florø</li></ul> Sør-Trøndelag:<ul><li>Trondheim</li></ul> Telemark:<ul><li>Brevik</li><li>Langesund</li><li>Porsgrunn</li><li>Skien</li></ul> Troms:<ul><li>Tromsø</li></ul> Vest-Agder:<ul><li>Flekkefjord</li><li>Haugesund</li><li>Kristiansand</li><li>Mandal</li></ul> Vestfold:<ul><li>Holmestrand</li><li>Horten</li><li>Larvik</li><li>Sandefjord</li><li>Svelvik</li><li>Tønsberg</li></ul> The 10 cities and towns for which the 1870 census returns have been lost are:<ul><li>Hølen, Akershus</li><li>Hamar, Hedmark</li><li>Åsgårdstrand, Vestfold</li><li>Stathelle, Telemark</li><li>Kragerø, Telemark</li><li>Farsund, Vest-Agder</li><li>Sandes, Rogaland</li><li>Stavanger, Rogaland</li><li>Vardø, Finnmark</li><li>Vadsø, Finnmark</li></ul>
