I’m trying to find my 3x great grandfather’s passenger list to America. I saw on a Geni tree that someone had him leaving from Trondheim in May of 1882, but the 1910 US Census says he arrived in 1885. He was born 23 Apr 1858 in Stadsbygd. Let me know if you need more info on him and I’ll try and give it to you.

A few more facts might be helpful:

Probably his marriage in MOMS:
NORMAN 02-153 03/25/1889 KROGNES, OLE A NOST, KAREN JOHNSON

Dueling censuses, here in 1900 gives his migration year as 1882:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M937-C4S

Here by at least 1885 in 1885 Minnesota state census:

The 1900 and 1910 censuses both put him in Norman Co. Minnesota. The 1900 notes that he has 'papers applied' for naturalization and the 1910 notes that he is now a naturalized citizen.
Norman Co. Minnesota naturalization records, first papers, petition, declaration of intention and final papers formats, are in the LDS Familysearch.org catalog and available for you to scan through probably from home.
https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/2524811?availability=Family%20History%20Library

The various filings for US naturalization often contain the applicants detail record of how they arrived in the country, sometimes even including the name of the ship and exact date of arrival.

According to this site, his brother Paul emigrated in May 1886:

http://www.hemneslekt.net/getperson.php?personID=I101700&tree=Hemne#cite1

I see this information is also recorded in the Cox/Kragnes family tree on Ancestry, according to which the brothers Paul and Ole married two sisters, so it looks like searching for one may well lead to the other.

Probably Ole leaving Trondheim in 1882, although the age is a year off:

https://www.digitalarkivet.no/view/8/pe00000000093474

Ritsen is the same ad Rissa, where Stadsbygd is located.

And his future wife Karen left in 1887, with the same destination. (And the same origin in Ritsen.) Bottom of page:

https://www.digitalarkivet.no/em20110302621054

She is entered as Karen Johnsen Nøst, matching the fact that her father was Peder Johnsen Nøst.

A tough one. I did notice that a passenger next to Ole Arntsen posted by Tore is named Mathilde Elden. I did find a likely candidate for her

Name: M Elden
Gender: Female
Arrival Age: 19
Birth Date: abt 1863
Departure Place: Liverpool, England
Arrival Date: 28 May 1882
Arrival Place: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
Ship: British Prince

Right below M Elden are Nic Dahl and her child, also found near Ole in the post by Tore.

But no Ole Arntsen or name even close on that ship. The closest is a

O Rindal
in the Pennsylvania, Passenger and Crew Lists, 1800-1962
Name: O Rindal
Gender: Male
Arrival Age: 22
Birth Date: abt 1860
Departure Place: Liverpool, England
Arrival Date: 28 May 1882
Arrival Place: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
Ship: British Prince

This looks like Karen's arrival, although

1) the record says male but I read the original as Karen, which is definitely a female, and
2) the (North Sea plus) Atlantic crossing was awfully quick if I read the dates correctly:

Name: Karon J Nost
Gender: Male
Arrival Age: 22
Birth Date: abt 1865
Birth Place: Sweden
Last Residence: Sweden
Departure Place: Liverpool, England
Arrival Date: 8 Jun 1887
Arrival Place: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
Ship: Lord Gough

Interesting that all of the finds yours and my two arrived in Philadelphia.

Usually give about ten days or more to make the trip. Seven days is very fast, but I agree it is certainly her. The list of passengers from Digitalakviet shows an Ole Johns. and family next to Karen and they are also found on the sam ship as Karen on page 375 of the manifest.
