Was she ever married and did she have any children?
You probably can assume that Margaret Bye married a Mr. Morse however I cannot find any record of the marriage or of children. Does not mean that she did not have children, just means the information is not easily found. |

Jens you may be able to obtain more information through the use of this book, "The History of Story County" The page that the link gets you to is a search page enter only the last name such as Westre or Egland and you will be able to access a considerable amount of information. A little on Westre a lot on Egland.

Birth Year: abt 1875
Age: 20

Here is another interesting find.The name clearly is Envevald on the manifest. He and his travelling companion have lines drawn through their names possiblily meaning that they did not travel on this ship. The companions name is Martine age 20. Both are going to Ames Iowa and to visit her sister A Anderson. Evevald also states that he had been in the US before in 1894 in Ames Iowa.
Name: Emerald Egeland
Arrival Date: 20 Mar 1895
Age: 26
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1869
Gender: Male
Port of Departure: Liverpool, England
Ship Name: Catalonia
Port of Arrival: Boston, Massachusetts
Last Residence: Stavanger

Hi,
It would have been difficult for one couple to be on both the Lucania landing in New York and the Catalonia at Boston landing in March 1895!
