Looking for information:
Paul Olson (Ameklev) b. 1-9-1822 in Doure, Norway, wife Tolline b. 6-4-1822 in Lenvik, Norway, son Edwin b. 10-27-1848 in Lenvik, Norway. The three left Norway sometime in 1862. Edwin's application for citizenship says he first set foot on US soil on June 29, 1862. They first came to Coon Prairie, Wisconsin then moved to Minnesota.
Would appreciate any help in finding out name of ship, passenger list, port they sailed from and port of arrival.
Thanks so much for your help. Ellen.

Unfortunately, there are no passenger lists for Quebec arrivals before 1865
