I am searching after two brothers from Northern Norway, died in US:

Hartløv Emil Nilsen, born 05.04.1889 at Sandstrand in Trondenes, went to US with the Boat Salmo 28.04.1909, destination Chipewa Falls in Wisconsin. He wasn’t married.
Hartløv used the name Harry and he died in Arisona?

Nils Peder Nilsen, born 23.03.1891 at Sandstrand in Trondenes, went to US with the Boat Tasso&Irma 20.04.1910, destination Portland in Oregon. As far as I know he wasn’t married and he lived in New York/Broklyn?

There are many stories about the two brothers. They were "tall and big", had hands like frying pan, both were police in Broklyn?


Could someone give me information about these two brothers, where did they live, died? And so on.
With best greetings from Edd-Magne
