This profile is part of the Hjørundfjord, Møre og Romsdal One Place Study.
{{One Place Study|place=Hjørundfjord, Møre og Romsdal|category=Hjørundfjord, Møre og Romsdal One Place Study}}
Hjørundfjord is a former municipality in Møre og Romsdal county, Norway. In 1964, it was merged with the former Ørsta and Vartdal municipalities into the new municipality of Ørsta. At the time of the merger, Hjørundfjord had 1,728 inhabitants.
This study aims to create profiles for every resident of Hjørundfjord born between approximately the mid 1600's up to 1910. Primary sources added include church book records (which began in 1733), probate records, censuses, modern death records, and grave information. Children who died young have their own profiles, but are not categorized to the one place study.



Progress update 26 March 2023:

  • There are currently 4,258 profiles categorized into this one place study
  • Church record progress: 63% of baptisms, 54% of marriages, and 50% of burials from the Hjørundfjord parish records have been attached to WikiTree profiles
  • Census record progress: 57% of the 1801 census, 54% of the 1865 census, and 53% of the 1900 census entries have been attached to WikiTree profiles
  • 578 probate records have been attached to WikiTree profiles

Naming: The names of the residents are entered using WikiTree's Norway Project Naming Conventions:

  • First name: all given names at baptism
  • Last name at birth: patronym
  • Other last names: the farm names the person used during their lifetime
  • Current last name: the most recent farm name (optional), or the name that was adopted as a surname
  • Note: WikiTree's naming guidelines changed in 2018, previously the recommendation was to enter the farm name as the last name at birth.
  • Note: when using the search person in WikiTree, if searching for farm names make sure to also type something in the first name field, otherwise it only searches names from the "last name at birth" field. Type an asterix (*) if you want to find every profile with the farm name.
