The "old" emigrantsprotokol had a smallish database covering Maselv and Bardu departures but it doesnot appear in the "new" emigrantsprotokol, wonder why?

Is #33 Arentine's father?

Do you know if he had any siblings or even half-siblings who went to America?

Is #30 Arentine's mother? Did she have any siblings who went to America?

Nr. 33 is Arentine`s father, and nr.30 is her mother.

I have not found siblings or half-siblings that I can be reasonably sure it is, who has traveled to America yet.

Okay, here is a reasonable candidate for Julius Torberson age 21 leaving the same year as Arentine in 1870 US census:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M67F-HHX

Julius Torberson becomes John Tobeson here in the 1880 census

As I read it, Jackie is tracking: Where did other people in Arentine's travel group go? Julius Torbersen age 21 (born ca 1843) was a fellow traveler. The man in Chicago in 1870 seemingly could be the same Julius as the traveler (albeit based on incomplete evidence). A Find-a-Grave memorial for the daughter Celia born in Illinois 1868 says she married "a first cousin." It lists Celia's father as Julius Torbersen.. Her spouse's mother is named as Aminde Sofie Torbersen Berg, suggesting Julius and Aminde may be siblings. Aminde seems to be living in Hammerfest in 1865, listed as born in Tromsøe.

1865 census
Martin Hauan b 1835 and Aminde Sofie b 1840

If Julius in Chicago is the same Julius as the traveler, this makes a chance that Arentine went to Chicago as well.

Thanks Jane for explaining. I'm sure that most of the NorwayHeritage responders have already looked in the major search engines and not found a woman named Arentine Hansen / Hansdatter b about 1846 and or not found good candidates. At least, I know I didn't, so that is why the move to search for other names that might be significant.

The 1870 census is the first, best source to look at, it is a nationwide resource occurring 6 years after she left. But the 1870 census has its problems. Look at the dreadful rendering of Julius Torberson's name in both the transcription and somewhat less dreadful in the actual schedule. Julius was chosen simply because his name was distinctive, not because there is an actual connection to Arentine, but perhaps she made the same decision where to go as he did. Of course, she may have done something entirely different.

Arentine Olafine is also very distinctive name. So far, I haven't found many carrying Arentine and there are a few named Olafine/ Olufine. Its possible that the name Arentine was transcribed as something entirely different or maybe Arentine adopted a first name entirely different say Anna or adapted Arentine to something else like Tina, etc.

These are the faddernes: Elias Olsen, C Hansdtr, C Hansen, B Hansdtr, Mine Pedersdtr and she was home baptized by Hanne Olsdtr.

Are Elias and Hanne related to Ane Lovise?

Good thinking Jackie. The ELCA base would be a good place to search if we can find a hint on where Arentine Olafine went to in America. The ELCA data base has a lot of records on Julius Tobersen. For example he married his wife Petra Olsen and in one record for Illinois, Deaths and Stillbirths Index, 1916-1947 for daughter Emma they are both recorded as being from Trumpson, Norway, I assume an americanized Tromso.

One record for example

Name: Theodor Andreas Torbersen
Event Type: Baptism
Birth Date: 6 Jan 1867
Baptism Date: 24 Mar 1867
Baptism Place: Chicago, Illinois
Father: Julius Torbersen
Mother: Petra
Church Name: Our Saviour's Lutheran Church
Church Location: Chicago, Illinois

Okay, here's an Arntine Hanson listed in the death / funeral records of a church found in ELCA funeral database at Archives.com:

Arntine Hansen Death Record
Church Bethany Lutheran
Church Location Gardner, ILMap
Event Type deaths

Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, Death and Burial Records
1850-1940
Evangelical Lutheran Church in America

But there are absolutely no details of any kind her name is merely on a list. The year at the top is 1865 and reads almost like a membership roll with the names listed family by family with the dod information added or moved away, or left the congregation. The first entries 288 or so are numbered but Arntine Hanson is on the part of the list without numbers. So I'd interpret this as an Arntine Hanson joined the congregation in 1865 and has since died.

This may be the same Arntine Hansen that Jackie found. Died in 1918. Same Church as Julius Tobersen. The original document is dated 1865 and looks like a list of members with various comments behind their name. Behind Arntine Hansen is the word dad. The list usually has a mans name followed by a woman name. However for Arntine not so. The name before her is Emelia Blangusd. ? followed by two other ladies names.

Arntine Hansen
in the U.S., Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, Records, 1875-1940
Name: Arntine Hansen
Event Type: Death
Death Date: 1918
Church Name: Our Saviour's Lutheran Church

Julius Tobersen is found in the same book as Arntine Hansen. Arntine is on page 340 and Julius is on the last page 346.

ulius Torbersen
in the U.S., Evangelical Lutheran Church of America, Records, 1875-1940

Name: Julius Torbersen
Event Type: Death
Death Date: 1918
Church Name: Our Saviour's Lutheran Church
Church Location: Chicago, Illinois

I am a little suspicious that they both died the same year? I wonder if I am missing something with the record date.

According to this family tree Julius died in 1909.

Julius John Torberson
1844–1909
BIRTH 19 MAY 1844 • Tromsø, Troms, Norway

And the record also

Sounds like its the same list but there is no 1918 date on the page at all. The name above Arntine is Emelia Blamquist, below is jomfru Ingeborg Kristine Haarstad and she is also marked as død.

Pige Emelia Blomquist married uk Henry Olsen on 7 Jan 1866 in Our Savior's.

The variation in the church name is one of the problems with the ELCA stuff, particularly with the Archives rendition. Having looked at many actual (but not these) films, there are usually paper markers at the first page of baptisms telling which congregation the records following belong to. Often congregations get absorbed and the records are not always marked when the records are from one or another.

At Archives.com Julius Torberson is on page 346 and has the notation gift man but nothing else. It does not say he is dead or out of the congregation at all.

The faddernes for some of Julius' children are:
Cecelie Sophie : Mad. Bjørvig, Schalotte Skested
Betsy Constance: Joh. Bjørvig, Dera Vernæs, Franz Vernæs /Visnæs, Anna Anderson, Finer / Tiner Hector
