Maybe she was born in 1869, rather than arriving in America that year?? |

Snip from the piece on Østbye in Tjølling Bygdebook. Anders Nilsen (1790-1892) with sons Lars (b.1823) who emigrated and Nils (b. 1828) with daughter Hanna Kristine (b. 1869) who also emigrated. There is a confirmation record for her in Tjølling in the 1880ies. Is this the person you are looking for? |

Yes! Thank you. We have the right Hannah. I searched records and can confirm. But is she on any passenger lists to USA? or where in USA? |

This is likely the grandfather and his family in Nebraska in the 1900 US Census.

Yes, that's my family! Emigrated July 1, 1872. Lars sold his portion of the Ostby farm, then jumped on the ship (after their father died). Hoping to find Hannah in US?! |

I also know her parents stayed in Ostby because I have visited their other descendants there. |
