I am looking for information regarding a brother and sister Endrestad.
Kari Olsdatter Endrestad born: July 17 1858 emigrated May 21 1881
Fredrik Olsen Endrestad born: Oct. 4 1862 emigrated May 19 1880

I have no idea on what ship or where they went. The story seems to end here.

Hi,
one "Fredrik Ols.", from Vaage (today: "Vågå") emigrated from Kristiania on 29-May-1880 on the ship "K.Sigurd". Click here

He is going to Alexandria, Minnesota. Could it be "your" Fredrik? Where did you find your dates of emigration? Vaage is the place where they lived in the 1865-census: Click here

The is one "Kari Ols." going to Alexandria on 30-APR-1881: Click here
Maybe....? Her residece says "Trysil".

I consider it very likely that the people you found are them. They were born in Vågå of Ole Endresatd and Ragnhild Kongsparten. Now I can try to trace down their decendants. Thank you!
