Genealogy

Each of the seven lags makes available its extensive library of genealogical materials including bygdeboker, family histories, county history books, microfilm and other resources.  On-line access to research websites like the Digitalarkivet will also be available. Each lag has an experienced genealogist who can help you in your search for ancestors in their area of Norway.  If you need translation of old Norwegian records and texts, there are translators available.  All of these resources and services are covered by the stevne registration fee.

The University's Chalmer Davee Library is designated as a Research Center & University Archives location.  that includes manuscripts, court records, land records, census records, newspapers, maps, etc.  focusing on the counties of Burnett, Pierce, Polk, and St. Croix, but with some statewide records as well. These resources are available to the public during regular library hours.

The Center is a joint project of the University Library system and the Wisconsin Historical Society.

 Wireless Internet available in the genealogy room and throughout the campus.
