In connection with a book project, I am trying to trace the journey of an eleven-years old relative, Ole Edvardsen Akre (born in Rendalen, Norway). I found his name on the passenger list of SS Christiania, leaving Fredrikstad for Amsterdam on 14 April 1888, through Holland America Line. I found three possible connections with this line, all from Rotterdam to New York: around 10.06 with S Zaandam; 11.06 with SS P.Cland; and 14.06 with SS Rotterdam (1).
I find no passenger lists for these ships. Can anybody help me?

Thanks a lot - yes this is definitely my man (or boy!). I could not find this departure of SS Zaandam. Also, I could not find any record on him in Castle Garden, since I did not use this family name (Edwardsen with a W, without the real family name Akre).
Great help, thank you!
