For each parish a description of the location and links to a set of relevant external sites are listed:
  • Digitale kilder
  • Kirkebilleder
  • DIS-Forum
  • Opslag i kilder
  • Krabsens stednavnebase
  • Dansk Demografisk Database
  • Sognetræf
  • Danpa
  • Sogn.dk

"Denmark" is defined as the Kingdom of Denmark after 1920 (i.e. including Northern Sleswig). There are no data for Greenland, Faroe Islands, Southern Sleswig, Holstein, Lauenburg, Dithmarschen, Norway, Skåne, Halland, Blekinge, Virgin Islands or other colonies. Even though these areas have been under the Danish Crown in recent times there are no linkable data.
