"Hero" Trondheim to Hull = then which ship to US?
Charly MooreHow do I find which ship in Hull my ancestors connected with? http://digitalarkivet.uib.no/cgi-win/webcens.exe?slag=visbase&filnamn=EMITROND&variabel=0&postnr=42783&fulle=true&spraak=n and the following ("neste") page (42781 to 42785; 42788; 42792 to 42795) John Bernt Iveson, wife Hannah, daughters Lovise, (twins) Johanna and Lydia His mother probably was on the same ship (husband Daniel, sons Andreas, Anton and Laurits Iverson). Apparently the daughter(s) stayed behind or passed away.
