My great-great grandmother and her children came to the USA from Norway on the Geiser. They left Kristiania on June 15, 1882. I would like to the date they landed in the US and what port.

Hi
I am not able to give you the exact date they landed, but you should add about 2 weeks from the date of departure. The arrival port was New York. :)
