Online access to documents of our ancestors' purchase and sale of real estate

[Helmer Christiansen]

Are you aware that there are now online access to documents of our ancestors' purchase and sale of real estate.

Conveyance and mortgage records from at least the mid-1800s to 1927 (Skøde og Pante) and scanned registration books (Tingbøger) from 1927 to 2000.

In recent censuses, there are often disclosed the properties cadastral numbers, which is key to the courts documents for the purchase and sale of real estate and mortgage lending.

In the purchase contracts you will often find agreements on the buyer's obligation to provide "aftægt" (shelter, food and drink, clothing, medicine and medical care and an honorable burial after the parish practice).
