From working with someone in Norway they have pointed me to shipping records, but how can I get a picture of the records or a digital copy?

I am specifically looking for more information on Bernt Johans. Drogseth (Saxberg) left on 27.10.1905 25 years old with his wife Lina Drogseth (Saxberg) 33 years old with The Bennet Line ship “Angelo” to North Dakota.

Emigration Records of Persons Emigrating over Kristiania Harbour. Record no. 160128 and 160129

Thanks,
Brian

The LDS Family History Library has those original records copied onto microfilm. You can order the appropriate Oslo, Norway emigration records (choose by the date) and the film reel will be sent to the Family History Center where there is usually also a copy to paper and/or scan ability.
