I find my relative Anne Petrine Rasmusdatter Ytrehovde(age21, born 1866) in the emigrant protocol on August 11 1887. (Her first name is written Hanna). She is together with 6 others from the same county , Volden. They are:
Elias Pettersen Velle, age 18 born 1869
Lars Gundersen Rebbestad, age 20 born 1867
Carl Thorsen Foldestad, age 23 born 1864
John Sivertsen Foldestad, age 24 born 1863
Anna Stensdatter Velle, age 21 born 1866
Jensine Andersdatter Velle, age 22 born 1865
The Inman line is noted behind their names.
In the passangerlists available on Ancestry.com I find the four last ones Carl, John, Anna and Jensine arriving in Boston on the 27 August with Catalonia, which is owned by Cunard, not Inman. The 3 others I find no trace of in the passangerlists.
S/S Ohio, owned by Inman, arrived in New York on the 27th of August, but no match to any of the 3 others. Nor are there any match searching the passenger lists on Ancestry.com.
Anyone can advice me on this:
Why would some go with Cunard ship, if they already had ticket with Inman?
Since it seems that the 7 split up, what would be the alternatives for 3 unknown?
Where would you advice me to search?
I am amazed over all the information I have found on this internetpage. |

Thanks a lot. Maybe it was the ages given that put me off. It would be obvious that these young people stayed together on their voyage to the new world.
In 1890 she married Edward Olaf Freeman, from Lofoten, born 1859 and immigrated in 1878. They lived in Seattle
