Voss, Hordaland, Norway
This is going to be a section for providing links and information about the Voss, Hordaland area of Norway. Voss is where my great great grandfather, Klas Knutson Mosafinn was born and raised before immigrating to America in 1844. This is the reason why I have great interest in the Voss area and why I have a lot of Voss genealogy resources and do a lot of Voss genealogy research and data building.
The above picture is of the Fleischer's Hotel in Voss. It is a very historic hotel and we stay here each year on our tour to Norway. This is a picture I took of the hotel several years ago. This link leads you to a wonderful website for Fleischer's Hotel. http://www.fleischers.no/en/
Several of my genealogy friends and I have extensive Voss family tree databases so if you are ever in need of help in figuring out who your Voss ancestors are we will gladly help you connect to your past. We love doing it! Just let me know in the contact forum section of this website. /contact-forum.html
