A History of Schenectady During the Revolution

Professor Flom lays out the establishment of every significant Norwegian settlement in America prior to the revolutionary year 1848. Most of the 19th-century Norwegians were from the districts of Stavanger, Haugesund, Ryfylke, Voss, Upper Telemarken, and West Numedal. Flom then follows the settlers as they begin to dot the countryside of the Midwest, to communities like Fox River and Beaver Creek, Illinois; Koshkonong and Blue Mounds, Wisconsin; and Clayton and Allamakee counties, Iowa. The work boasts of a bibliography and a number of tables that illustrate the distribution of Norwegian-Americans throughout the country.
