Hi- I am looking for the ship list of Ole Andersson Moen who was born in Nord Aurdal, Valdres Norway in 1845. His parents were Anders Johanneson Moen who was born around 1816 and his mother was Marit Knudsdatter Moen (Dalsmoen) b. 1812. Our records say that they came about 1863 but I was wondering about the exact date and who came together to America. Thanks so much.

He could be #269 in the passenger list for Galathea.
He is listed as Ole A. Andersen is 19 years old, but residence is Helgeland.
Ole Andersens baptismal record (no middle name), see #15. He was born Febr 20 1846, the farm was Kjørstadmoen.
His parents and his sister Marit in 1865.
The mothers age should have been 54 not 64.
