Looking for ship that ggrandfather came to USA on Came ove 1883-06-08 from Norway and I have that he came to Wisconsin on the Rollo..Would this be correct Christian Larsen (Melby) born 5 Dec 1851 believe his wife Sergine Bendiksdatter Larsen came at the same time and possible Lars Larsen also..I would like to know the ship they came on for sure..everything points to the Rollo??? Thanks DEE dpreston2@charter.net
If he sailed on the Rollo, it indicates that he traveled via Engaland. The S/S Rollo belonged to the Wilson Line of Hull. It was not a transatlantic ship, but a feeder. You have to check the police emigration records to find out what company (Line) or what agent they had signed their contracts with. That will help narrowing the search for the ship they arrived to America on.
Borge I'm not real good at this..can you help me..How do I check the Police emigration records???I know there must be ways to find this information but do not know HOW...Thanks DEE
1883 from Christiania
