Stoksund is a former municipality in the old Sør-Trøndelag county, Norway. The municipality existed from 1892 until its dissolution in 1964. The 114-square-kilometre (44 sq mi) municipality was located in what is now the northwestern part of the municipality of ÅfjordinTrøndelag county. The municipality included the island of Stokkøya and the surrounding islets, plus the surrounding area of the mainland. The administrative centre was the village of Revsnes, where the Stoksund Church is located.[3]

History

[edit]
Sound Stoksund

The municipality of Stoksund was established on 1 June 1892 when the old municipality of Bjørnør was divided into three separate municipalities: Stoksund (population: 1,122), Osen (population: 1,575), and Roan (population: 2,069). During the 1960s, there were many municipal mergers across Norway due to the work of the Schei Committee. On 1 January 1964, the municipality of Stoksund (population: 1,515) was merged into the neighboring municipality of Åfjord (population: 2,643) to its south.[4]

Name

[edit]

The municipality (originally the parish) is named after the Stoksund strait which runs between the island of Stokkøya and the mainland. The first element of the name comes from the Old Norse word stokkr which means "log" or "stick". The last element is sund which means "strait" or "channel".[5] The municipal name was spelled Stoksund, with one "k", but today the name of the area is often spelled as "Stokksund". Currently, the official name of the area according to the Norwegian Mapping and Cadastre Authority uses Stokksund, with the letter "k" used two times. There is no official documentation that exists that shows an official change in the spelling of "Stoksund" to or from "Stokksund".[6][7]

Government

[edit]

While it existed, this municipality was responsible for primary education (through 10th grade), outpatient health services, senior citizen services, unemployment, social services, zoning, economic development, and municipal roads. During its existence, this municipality was governed by a municipal councilofelected representatives, which in turn electedamayor.[8]
