Nesna, a small coastal town located just South of the Arctic Circle, is the epicenter of my paternal grandfathers family.
See Nesna on Google Maps.

- The Family of Lorents and Elisabeth Isaccson – The American Grandchildren of Lorents and Elisabeth Isaccson created a document (I’m guessing in the early 1980’s) outlining their family that includes some fascinating information about the Herset and Handa farms in Nesna. I have re-typed it and converted to a HTML formatted document.
