The Hellig Olav was commissioned in 1903, and sailed from Cophenhagen to Christiania on March 25, 1903. It appears that the first voyage from Kristiania was March 26 1903 to New York, and arrrived April 10, 1903. Thus, this should be a maiden voyage, with lots of bells and whistles.
Digitalkivet's first Tranasction Date is 30:09:1904.

The ships manifest is available on Ellis Island and Ancestry.com.

So, my question is, did the Digitalkivet's records from 1903 to 1904 somehow get filed in the wrong place?

Does this web site have access to these records?

Thank you Jan for the response.

I learned that the searching by names category is very precise.
