Emigration records from Kristiania (Oslo) show there was a sailing departing from Oslo on 25th August 1904. From the (very good) list of Hellig Olavs sailings on this site there is actually a 'hole' in the calendar that summer/fall. Where is it possible to check if the list is incomplete? The goal is to find this passenger list.

Ancestry.com has the passenger lists for the arrival of the Hellig Olav in 1904. There were quite a few arrivals. Do you have a specific name you are looking for?

Thanks for the answers. I found my grandmother Guro Østihaug arriving at this date. Quite exciting :)

Maybe the webmaster should update the list of sailings for Hellig Olav in 1904. The ship left Kristiania August 26, 1904 and arrived in New your September 06.
This sailing is missing from the list.
