Publisher Description:
This book is a translation of a family history book published in Norway in 1995 by Jostein Austrheim, called "Utsira, Gard og slekt." It is a genealogy and record of settlement of the island of Utsira, the outermost island off the west coast of Norway, from the earliest written records in 1521 to the present day (1995). Aside from a detailed genealogy of the families who lived there, it contains many fascinating old photos, newspaper clippings and anecdotes from the past.
