Mygrandmother's two sisters each returned to Norway to care for their mother for a time. The time period is about 1900-1914. They lived near Voss and first emigrated from Bergen. Names are Karoline Bjarnesdatter Vold and Guri Bjarnesdatter Vold. Thanks for any help.
It looks like their mother was Sigri Ivarsdatter. In 1900 Guri Bjørnsdatter is at the Vold farm attending and nursing her mother, see 5309 Guri was born Aug 11 1877, see #162 the father was Bjørn Thorgilsen, Vold and the mother Sigrid Ivarsdatter.
Thanks for the responses. Yes, Karoline left in 1893 and Guri and Gertrude left in 1902. Then Karoline returned to Norway sometime. She was there in 1908 and returned to USA in 1910. Guri then returned to Norway after that and finally returned to USA in 1914.
How can I find when they each returned to Norway? Are there lists of arrivals in Norway (most likely Bergen)?
