Norwegian army in 1885

Legg inn av gj16333 » 17 mai 2012 16:34:03

Hello, my name is Darryl and I live in Sydney NSW Australia. Please excuse my writing in English as I know very few words of Norwegian, only those I have learnt from looking at the Digitalarkivet Parish Registers over the last few years. If I put my words into the Google Translator I am sure they would come out funny.

My Great Grandfather Ole Martin OLSEN was a sailor on a ship from Germany who arrived in Sydney in 1890 and decided to stay. In the 1885 Norway census he is recorded at 28 Raadhusgaad Kristiania as Ole M Ols. born 1862 with the position of artillerist. There are another 18 soldiers with him.

What I would like to know if young men were conscripted into the army about 1885 and how long would they have to serve.

Or would he have volunteered and joined for a fixed number of years?

Takk for hjelpen
