They left Kristiania (Oslo) by the Wilson Line S/S Hero for Hull, England, July 23 1875. Corresponding ships from Liverpool, England is listed here. That is those ships departing Liverpool 4-5 days later. To narrow your search you need information what Agent they used to determine the Agent’s Liner. To obtain this information you need to look up the original emigrant protocols. Ask your local Library for help. The protocols are called “Christiania Politikammer Emigrantprotokoll ….(year)”, 35mm film.
When you got the name of the Agent, use our search engine on the main page to see the Line they were agents for. |

Mathie Jensdatter (51) & Thea Toresdatter (11) arrived Quebec on August 11th, 1875, sailing from Liverpool. The ship was S/S Scandinavian.
See this topic about how they could have proceeded from Quebec.

| This is amazing and you have done such a splendid job with photos and maps. I had just finished figuring out which film to order from FHL, and voila up comes my answer. I really appreciate this. |
