Dear Jan Peter or other Researchers.
Repeating request for assistance on following:
Anders Dahl left Trondheim on April 5, 1881 on board the steamship, Tasso. He traveled alone to Osakis, Minnesota to prepare a place for his wife and children. Somebody already here in the United States purchased his ticket for him. Do you know who this was?
Ingeborg came to America the following year with the children. Thora (15), August (11), Arnold (5) Marie (4) and Signe (11 mo.) They left Norway on October 5, 1882 on board the steamship, Hero.
These appear to be "feeder" ships to other Trans Atlantice ships.
Are you able to identify the ships they sailed to North America?
Thank you.
Erik.

Hi, Anders Dahl left Trondheim on May 4th, not April 5th. (In Norway, we list the date as DD-MM-YYYY) I strongly believe he arrived America in Philadelphia on May 23rd, 1881, sailing on the S/S Illinois, departuring Liverpool. But I can't locate him in the indexed register, so his name might be wrongly transcribed. You should check the original manifest to see if he is listed.
Ingeborg and the children left Trondheim on May 10th, not October 5th! They arrived New York on May 31st 1882 on the S/S Batavia, sailing from Liverpool. Indexed names: Igneborg Dall Aug Dall Arnold Dall Maria Dall Igneborg Dall (Signe Dahl?) Thora Dahl

Since Jan Peter has not answered this, I will. It is not your Anders and Berit - the marriage date is Oct 23 1818. Sirri was born out of wedlock Aug 21 1819 - marriage must be later than this birth date then. (Besides Anders was Monsen and Berit was Marit Arentsdatter) Did your Anders and Berit (Beret) marry? They were both possibly on Nordtøme in 1801, 11 and 2 years old respectively. An Anders Rasmussen born 1790 married Gunnild Sivertsdatter 1824 - could he be your Anders rasmussen? |

Thank you Jan Peter.
Sorry about the date mixups.
In your researching, have you ever been able to find documents as to who paid for voyages as in bill bet i America, which I assume is bill paid in America?
Regards, Erik. |

"Bill bet i America" means "Ticket paid in America".
It's hard to tell who paid his ticket. It could be a brother, a cousin, other family member or just an old friend who needed a farm hand. A note on Anders Dahl's emigration says: "Reiser paa Paul Olsens ", meaning "Travelling on Paul Olsens..."
Travelling on Paul Olsen's what? It doesn't say. Possibly on Paul Olsen's ticket? One "Paul K. Olsen (25)" from Vardø is headed for Houston Minn on June 23rd 1881. His ticket is also paid in America. Could it be that some relatives of Paul Olsen sent over several tickets, and that your Anders got one of them? They could have got the tickets from a farmer, and then committed to work on his farm for some time.

o.k. tWe know that Anders originally stated his destination as Osakis, Minnesota.
Houston, Minesota is some distance away. Quite some distance away.
It would make more sense that there was a Paul Olsen near Osakis, which is not far from where Anders and his family intitially settled.
We will look for this name, Paul Olsen, in our future research.
thank you kindly for your help on this.
Regards, Erik. |

Simen Br'kkan also travleing to Osakis.....
Look at the passenger above Anders Dahl. He is also listed as going to Osakis, Minnesota. Perhaps they were travleing together.
What a strange name. Can you see the origianal manifest to verify this persons name?

His name must be Simon Brækkan. (Brekkan).
It looks like the tool they've used to publish this emigrant database doesn't fully support the norwegian character "æ". I've seen this on several other emigrants as well.
