I am researching my ancestors emigration from Norway. I know that they left on the ship Tasso from Trodheim on 16.03.1904 to Hull England, but I cannot find them or the ship they were on to Canada. I am told the landed in Halifax? but this is not for sure. here are their names etc:

Hans Hansen Bjorgen/Bjorgan
Ingeborg Bjorgen/Bjorgan
John Bjorgen/Bjorgan
Halsten Bjorgen/Bjorgan
Johan Bjorgen/Bjorgan
Ella Bjorgen/Bjorgan

they would have been travelling together as a family. According to the digitalarkivet, they were heading to the US.

Thanks in advance.
