Newsletters

Landingslag Newsletters, Past and Present

The very first Landingslag newsletter appeared in 1977. Since that time, between one and four newsletters have been published each year, with an average of about three annually. Beginning in 1982, the newsletter has carried the title Land i Amerika. All issues are available to members of Landingslag.

Image of the Landings Laget's newsletter. The words Landings Laget's Land-I-Amerika are on it along with images of the Nordre and Søndre Land shields and Per Einbu's Emigrant Memorial. There's also a swashy graphic on the right.

The table in the next section serves as an index to the contents of all Landingslag newsletters. Each entry falls into one of the following categories:

  • B&G – Biographies and Genealogies
  • MiscInf – Miscellaneous Information, including general genealogy guides
  • MLPosts – Articles about or by Member Landings
  • Norge&L – Articles related to Norway and Land
  • Obits – Obituaries

Clicking a publication date will open the corresponding newsletter. Please note that access is restricted to Landingslag members.

The table below is extensive. To find specific content, use the Search box. You can also filter entries by category by searching for a category code. For example, typing B&G in the Search box will display only entries related to Biographies and Genealogies.
