I am looking for the shipping list for Jens ( James ) Lauritzen. He had stated that he arrived in New York on 28 May, 1890. He emigrated from Frederikshaun. He married Jensine Marie Pedersen one month prior to leaving.

Thank you, How did you come up with that so fast. I am a member of ancestry and it never came up with anything. If I did a advanced search it came up 0 matches.

I think the arrival date was 26 May 1890, on the SS Thingvalla.

Ths ship sailed from Cophenhage, Denmark, and Norway.
Page 4 of the manifest, #187 lists: Johannes Laurizen age 30, from Denmark.

Page 7, of the manifest, #318: lists Jension Laurtizen age 20.

Do these people have the right ages?

Jensine Lauritzen b. 16 Apr 1871 applied for Naturalization papers age 70, on 28 April 1941.

ancestry.com gave me a hit for Jension instead of Jensine which helped find the ship and date.
