Here is the Bergen record, it states his birthdate as 1846 and the Allan shipping line:

According to the information on this site, the Allan Line operated routes from Glascow and Liverpool to New York, Philadelphia, Quebec & Montreal and Baltimore, Maryland. I could not find him in the New York online database.

Well, it certainly looks as if he lived in Indvigen in 1881, as that is what is listed as place of residence. According to the records Jo Anne pointed to he departed Bergen May 20 1881. If he went over in 1869 he must have come back, and stayed in Norway for some time before returning in 1881.

In the 1910 census he is in McHenry County, single, working as a servant but the BLM records show that he homesteaded land in 1908 as WILHELMSEN, SIVER Click Here This land would have been located somewhere between Upham and Bantry North Dakota.
