Ole Bjornson and family came from Christiania, Norway to London and to Liverpool in 1868. They arrived in Quebec in June 1868. I know that part of their trip was on ship North Star, but which part? and what was name of other ship? Where can I find a passenger list?
The family left Quebec and settled in MN and WI.

Recommend you read the excellent articles on this site regarding routes, ships, etc. Have you searched for them on the databases here? Check the 1868 arrivals and departures databases, there are several passenger lists for arrivals in Quebec in 1868.

If they are not listed here, the microfilm passenger list can be rented at a Family History Center.

In 1868 the S/S North Star operated a route from Christiania to London via Christiansand. Departure every Thursday afternoon at 5 o'clock from Christiania.
