| Immigration for Erik Erickson Bjerke |
| Cyndy Moen | I am trying to find a passenger list which includes Erik Erickson Bjerke and his family. I have found sons Anders and Peter who both came over in 1873, in May and October. According to family history they then sent for the rest of the family in 1877, but I can find no listings for them. Anders and Peter came under the name Erickson, and sailed from Oslo, with their home listed as Gran. The remaining Bjerkes should be Erik, Berthe, Ole, Julius, Syver, Anne, Lauris, Edmond and Mathea. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

The others I can't find, unless this is Erik, Berthe and Edvard?

| Hopkins | An earlier series of 9 message board postings on Rootsweb about the same family reveals assumed birthyears for each and more detailed information.

According to the 1900 US census Julius, Ole & Peter came 1876

| Cyndy Moen | Thanks to all of you wonderful folks!! I now have the whole family over to America, except for Mathias, who I had already known stayed in Norway. I could never have done this without the help that I got and I do appreciate it more than I can say.
