Abstract: The Historical Population Register (HPR) organiz- es data that are used in health research, social scienc- es, history, geography and information science. Several countries are presently building longitudinal popula- tion registers. Thus, the Historical Samples Network recently had its launch meeting. In Norway, the HPR will complement the current Central Population Reg- ister from 1964. Our aim is to include as many as pos- sible of the 9.7 million persons who lived in Norway between 1801 and 1964. The National Archive, Norwe- gian Computing Center and the Norwegian Historical Data Centre currently build a register part from 1801 to 1815 to be launched at the Constitution Anniversa- ry in 1814. This article explains in particular the record linkage methods.
