GENEALOGY: THE TRØNDERLAGET OF AMERICA

Just a thought... Those of you interested in pursuing our Norwegian genealogy to greater depth will find this internet site extremely helpful:

As you scroll down the long list of books of genealogies and stories of the Norwegian people who came to America, many from Selbu, you will see that quite a large number of the books are located in St Olaf college. The books listed are often zerox copies of originals. Likewise it seems to me that a copy of Torsten's and Hylma's books, together with the Uglem genealogy, should at some point also be placed in St Olaf's college for the benefit of researchers.

Here is another treasure chest of information: The Pacific Lutheran University Scandanavian Manuscript Collection:

I know they would appreciate copies of Torsten's and Hylma's books.

I would like to contribute the manuscripts to both places. Or someone else could do it. Could I get some input from family on this?
