If you go to http://rootsweb.com/
and type in the last name Lybeck (in the available option "Search RootsWeb.com") that website will return 344 matches for that last name under the WorldConnect. Click on the WorldConnect link.
At the bottom of the next page it will offer a number of options to refine the search. Type in Norway for Place of Birth and click Search.

A number of the siblings that you list have been submitted to WorldConnect by someone and you should contact them. Of course, they do NOT list details of living individuals but perhaps you can exchange more information in private correspondence. That should help you contact "Lybeck Family in America".
