Where to look for earlier Land Parish Records

Question

The Land, Oppland parish records begin in 1708, and since Oppland "sprung from Akershus".....would I find any earlier parish records (for Fluberg, Hov, Nordsinni, Torpa and Østsinni parishes) in some of the earlier Akershus records?  Several parishes there start in the late 1600s, but where to start and who to choose?  The following Akershus parishes have earlier records:  Ullensaker, Nes, Gjerdrum, Nannestad, Aker (really old ones - 1656 - 1688) Vestby and Eidsvoll.  Would any of these have covered any of the above Land parishes before 1708?

Comments

I am sorry to say my Norwegian ability is limited to reading the more basic documents.  I find most of the probate records (written in that continuous free flow writing - no headings and no paragraphing for clarity) almost impossible to read by non-native speakers.  I am pretty much limited to  scanning for names buried in the endless written content.  This could be a project for someone in the future:  writing abstracts of will and probate records. ;-)  Some localities have the little 3 x 5 index cards which are helpful, but not enough locations do this.

If you send me a mail with your data on persons, farms and dates in Land early 18th century, I could do some checking for you.

Answer 1

No. Land is in Oppland fylke (county) which previously was called Kristians Amt. The fact that Oppland together with Østfold, Akershus, Hedmark, Buskerud and Vestfold  counties in the 17th century formed Akershus Len, does not imply that Akershus fylke or Amt at any point in time included any parish in the other counties.

Your best source before 1708 will be probate records.
