Hi all
my great-grandparents moved to Australia in 1881 from Stavanger and we have lost all contact with their families in Norway, so I am trying to find them. (their names were Anders Sigmundsen Klungland b1854 Klungland Helleland and Karen Kirstine Jakobsen Dybing b1858 Høiland)

these are the people I am looking for who may have also emigrated:
*Gabriel Sigmundsen Klungland b1858 klungland Helleland, he moved to Egersund in 1879
*Theodor Sigmundsen Klungland b1861 klungland helleland, he moved to Egersund in 1879
*Karl Johan Sigmundsen Klungland b1864 klungland helleland
*Karl Ludvig Jakobsen Dybing (Sjømann) b1853 Høiland, jumped ship in 1878 in London (residence given as Killingland, Høiland)
*Enevald Jakobsen Dybing (Sjømann) b1862 Høiland, jumped ship in 1881 in London (residence given as Sandnæs)

I have checked the following records at Digitalarkivet:
Innflytta/Utflytta for these areas
Emigrantar frå Stavanger 1903-1928
Emigranter fra Stavanger 1825-1970
Emigrantar over Bergen frå Rogaland
The 1900 census for Norway
relevant death/burial indexes
this emigrant database

but with no success, any suggestions would be gratefully appreciated.
thanks
