I acquired through ebay a wonderful photo album that includes at least 20 photos taken in 1920 in Vik i Sogn. The photos are sepia-toned, about 5 inches square, and clearly the work of a professional photographer or a highly skilled amateur. There are exterior and interior photos of the stavkirke and the hovekirke as well as several photos taken on an unidentifed sæter. A handwritten inscription on the cover says "Norge sommeren 1920, To sister Jennie with all good wishes, Bill." I have checked 1920 passenger lists for the Stavangerfjord (of which there are several photos in the album) but have not identified a "Jennie" or "Bill" that might be the ones pictured in the album. If there is an interest in the Vik i Sogn photos, I would be happy to try to scan and email them. If someone could identify the sæter in the photos (or the people) there may be a way to reunite these photos with family members. | ||
Comment: Sorry for the late reply! I can try to help you identify the sæter images - please scan them and send them to the email address printed at the Myself page |
