Yes, a "qualified chance" sounds better. Seeming I wasn't the one who actually found them!!

So a BIG BIG thankyou to those who have helped, I wouldnt have got this far without all of your information and guidance. :)

When you cant read Norwegian and have to look up each word, it makes it very time consuming! I can make out dates etc, but dont know what some of them mean because they arent in my dictionary.

Thanks again

Ok ignore the above post.

I still cant find anything on the ship he came to Australia on. I did find though, that A. Terkelsen owned another ship called the "Hera"? I am trying to find this now, but if anyone has any extra information that would be great.

Thanks

What does A. Terkelsen or the sailing 'barque' Hera have to do with Hans Jacobsen Hansen? What link are you trying to establish?

I am trying to find out more about A. Terkelsen and what ships he owned as it may lead me to the ship that Jacob come to Australia on. We cant find any information other than what has been given in this thread. It seems the "Byfoegd Christie" stopped in Australia, I dont know what for because I cant find any passenger lists on it, Jacob jumped ship and the boat kept going. I have specific dates from Gunnar of when Jacob left the ship so there must be a ships log or some other register of the boat. I cant find anything on it at all.

I was hoping any link to A. Terkelsen and his shipping line/fleet may lead us to the Chrisitie.

Its written in the churchbook that her father is born in 1840 and her mother in 1842, and that they married in 1861.
(I find a girl 16 years old named Hansine Hansen who left Kragerø to New York on the ship Hekla. Could this be her ? )



The ship "Byfoged Christie" was probably a cargo ship, and no immigration ship. You will probably not find passanger list for this boat.

As far as I can see, people thet emigrated to Australia went by boats from England or Germany. It is from these wessels you will find these passenger lists.

The possible "key" to be shure is to get Jacob Hansen's immigration papers and see if the ship name is stated there. have you seen these papers ?

Regards, Gunnar.

Thanks Gunnar. I have just sent you an email :)

I am searching for immigration papers or naturalisation papers at them moment. It seems it wasnt a requirement back then for them to become naturalised.

If the Christie was a cargo vessel, wouldnt there be crew lists or other registers somehwere? I realise that alot of the information may not be around these days, but its worth a try still.

I have seen another "Memorial for letters of naturalization" as this document is called, for another sailor from Kragerø, that jumped ship in Melbourne in 1869 (1870 is stated in the document)
The document is filled in 1897 so it's a long time since he jumped ship.
Not all information was correct. The ship name was Ano, but I found that the correct one should be Ino.
Might be they needed this document to get a marrige certificate ?
Some one else here who knows ?
This was my first time to solve such a problem and it was a difficult one.
The sailor had changed his first and last name complitely and it was by his sister and brother name, and old family pictures we were able to solve this. Ask your family members if they have old pictures. Old pictures was normaly taken good care of. Often you will find the name and address of the photographer on the photo.
In our "annotasjonsruller" a kind of cv for the sailors we can find hundreds of sailors jumping ships, but in Australia it not so many probaly around 10.

About Ole E. Yttri, all this is in norwegian. I do not have his email, but you can reach him on the Digitalarkivet. This is defently the best place to ask questions like yours. We hope som day to be able to place our "annotasjonsruller" from Kragerø on the Digitalarkivet.

No I don't think there is other information. But I can't see why you need more information.

We do know that one Jacob Hansen born in 1864 in Kragerø was one of the crew on "Byfoged Christie" and that he jumped ship in Melbourne in 1883.

He is the only one with that name from Kragerø that jumped ship in Melbourne.

Ok, thanks Gunnar.

I will look into the "Memorial for letters of naturalization" and see what I can find. Sounds like he would have needed it when he married.

The family have no pictures of him at all. I have asked everyone. I am trying to track down a book which I have fund was written about him over here. He became a fisherman in Victoria before and after marriage.

Thanks

Hi everyone

I have been in touch with the National Archives here in Australia and there are Letters of Naturalisation, but they have not been digitaslised as yet. This should be done withing the next year or so. I cant access originals as the files are all closed at the moment.

I am now going to go through all my research and see if I can find any other leads.

I also cant find the book that was written either.

Seem to have hit a brickwall now!

I cant believe it!! I found Jacobs naturalisation papers. I decided to have a quick look again last night and found a Jacob hansen with a digital copy of the records online. I had a look and everything matches, except when he came to Austalia.

I need help figuring out what it says though. This is the link, click on review digital copy.

http://naa12.naa.gov.au/scripts/ItemDetail.asp?M=0&B=1595124

I cant make out the ship or where it says he was married.

Also, if all the dates add up as well as where he was born, what happens to the information Gunnar gave me about a Jacob Hansen jumping ship?

Thanks

Ok, I have made out the info I needed. He came to Australia on the "By Chrisitie" which is close to the info Gunnar gave me of him jumping ship from the "Byfoged Christie". He left Glasgow, Scotland and arrived in Australia c. 1880.

Hello, Allison,

I don't know whats wrong here, but the person I find in this link is not Jacob Hansen from Kragerø, Norway, but one Hans Hansen from Denmark.
