Following the familyreunion of the Lund family in June 2013 we started to plan the next reunion: Summer 2018.We would like to make a familybook to be published for the reunion.This webpage is the beginning of the making of this book as well as a chance for the family to follow our work.
Most of the webpages will be in Norwegian. However, we will try to include some of the information in English as well. If you are a decendant we would like to hear from you. Or you may contact us if you have questions or additional information which may be useful to us. Send an e-mail to line@lundslekt.info.
We are planning a familyreunion in the summer of 2018. Reserve the summer holiday for Norway :-) !
Jacob Christophersen Lund Selven (1753 - 1839) had his childhood at Selven in the municipality of Agdenes. He had 9 sisters and brothers. He moved to Ørlandet (Brekstad municipality) and became a farmer at Bakken. He has many decendants using the name LUND. The theory is that his grandfather - Ole Einersen Selven (1678 - 1722) - came from a farm named Lund in theViggja/Børsa-area (Skaun municipality today) and that this is the origin of our Lund name. Discussion forum (in Norwegian) about this theory.
