More information would be helpful, where did she settle, when were the children born? Olson is a very common name.

I could not find an Anna Eide immigrating to New York in 1909. Have you found her exact dates of leaving Norway?

What was her patronyimic name? Did any other relatives emigrate?

Oi!! Ma this si the right one?
Annas father was Knut. She was born in Sunnfjord, written Søndefjord. It can easy be written like Sandefjord!

How can i contact Ellis Island??
Gosh, this was a suprise!

Actually, her hometown was written Sandfjord, Norway. It was me who wrote Sandefjord...

She entered the ship Saint Louis in Southampton on June 12th, and looks to have been travelling alone.

First Name: Anna Knudsen
Last Name: Eide
Ethnicity: Norway, Scandinavian
Last Place of Residence: Sandfjord, Norway
Date of Arrival: Jun 19, 1909
Age at Arrival: 25y Gender: F Marital Status: S
Ship of Travel: Saint Louis
Port of Departure: Southampton
Manifest Line Number: 0003

Closest relative looks like "Father Knud eide, Bygstad Port (?), Søndfjord"
It also looks like her destination could be the guy she married, Lennart Olssson, but it's very hard to read.
Address looks be be in NY state.
