Flå Gards- og slekts-historie Index book - 2021?

Both index books will contain new information that will be handle over to us and corrections of the previous books.

To get a complete view of any family in Flå parish you need to buy the whole set - the same you need to do for Nes parish. The two parish is very close connected to each other regarding names, farm, churches and administration. Therefor I would recommend that all the books would put you into understanding the whole story about your family from Nes in Hallingdal.

There is two way of ordering the book:

To my knowledge the bookshop is the biggest in whole Hallingdal and is a serious and reliable place to order your books. The Flå and Nes Kommune will be selling the books via this shop only.
