Vossingen was a publication of Vosselag issued during the period from 1920 to 1950. Knut A. Rene was the editor.

Articles informed Vosselag members of lag activities, but more importantly for us now, many articles contained information about the Vossing families in both America and Norway. There were also articles about events of the day as they related to Vossings in both countries.



Dr. Stanley Nuland has translated Vossingen and the issues listed below are now available in pdf format. Each issue of the translation has the Norwegian and English texts in parallel columns. Acrobat Reader is needed to access these files. It is available for free download at: "Get Adobe Reader"

Numbering of Vossingen started with 3rd year, no. 1, in continuation of Wossingen, an earlier publication (1858-1860), although there is no direct connection between the two publications. After the 11th year, publication became infrequent until the final issue in 1950.
