Anders Pedersen Strøm was travelling from Oslo to Chicago on 27 July 1869. It seems like he was the only member of his family that went to America.
He was born in Sweden in ab. 1830, but went to Sarpsborg in Norway where he married a swedish woman, Christine Svendsdatter. They had 4 children from 1859 to 1868. In 1875 Christine was a widow, living in Sarpsborg.
I haven´t found Anders dead in Sarpsborg, so I wonder what happened to him. Can he be found in the passenger lists ?

Yes, in the 1865 census he´s called Peder Andersen Strøm, but his name must be Anders Pedersen (Pehrson) Strøm. They got married in Tune (Sarpsborg) 17 July 1857 and his name was Anders Pehrson. He was a carpenter.

These are the three Andrew or Anders Pederson's in the Illinois death index, before 1916. None of them fit with our Anders/Andrew being born abt 1830. I did not find any Anders/Andrew Strom in the index.

Interesting that the birth record for Carl Julius shows father as Anders Peterson Strøm and mother Kirstine Svensdatter Feng born Sept. 3, 1859. See

Similarly and in contrast to the 1865 Census the birth record for Amanda Josefine born Sep 8, 1861 shows her father as Anders Peterson Strøm and mother as Chirstine Svensdatter.

And finally this is likely Gustav Olsen Scherve who has been transcribed slightly differently. He is on page 2 of the orginal mnifest. I think that this is probably enough to be fairly certain that this is the correct Anders Strom.
Name: Gustav Scherrov
Arrival Date: 19 Aug 1869
Birth Year: abt 1844
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Ethnicity/Race/Nationality: Norwegian
Place of Origin: Norway
Port of Departure: Copenhagen, Denmark
Destination: United States of America
Port of Arrival: New York
Port Arrival State: New York
Port Arrival Country: United States
Ship Name: Santiago de Cuba

Gustav ends up in Chicago, Illinois as a printer - Source: 1880 US census where his surname appears to be spelled as "Sherway". The age and country of birth are right.
I can find only one reference online for the "Exelensen Toll" (listed for all of these on the Oslo emigration protocol list). The poster's ancestor was another passenger on that ship. She recounts that the ship took them as far as Copenhagen and the rest of the trip was on the ship Santiago De Cuba.

I've been trying to find the other names on the voyage after they arrived in the US (searching census indexes) - but thus far Gustav has been the first found. |
