ICELAND STRANDASYALA FRIðFINNUR EYMUNDSSON ALPING 18 45

[Hugh J Preacher]

Have considerable family from “Strand” Iceland. My grandfather Friðfinnur
Eymundsson was born there 13.07.1880 in Kleifum, Kaldrananessokn,
Strandasysla, Iceland. He immigrated to the USA and married my grandmother
in New Jersey.



Also, for those interested in Strand, I have acquired a copy of Strandamenn
Aeviskrar 1703 - 1953 Written by Jon Gudnason and published in 1955. This
volume documents genealogical registry of farmers and other men who owned
their own houses and lived with their families during the above-mentioned
period and included nine of my grandparents. Happy to try and find yours.



Also interested in information regarding activities of the Alping especially
between 1845 and 1885 when my grandfather TORFI EINARSSON and uncle ÁSGEIR
were members.



Also searching for sources of birth marriage and death records across
Iceland.



Regards



Hugh
