Norway to Napier, New Zealand: Known List Errors?
NearNorsewoodDoes anyone know if there is/are list(s) of known errors for emigrants/passenger lists for the following two sailings? (1) The SS Høvding sailed from Kristiania/Christiania (now Oslo), Norway on May 31, 1872. It arrived Napier, New Zealand, on September 01, 1872, and (2) The Høvding sailed from Kristiania/Christiania (now Oslo), Norway on August 08, 1873. It arrived Napier, New Zealand, on December 01, 1873. I have checked the emigrants on Digitalarkivet vs the immigrant list at the New Zealand end, and it appears some of the emigrants never boarded the ships, and so on. Are there places where known discrepancies/errors have been recorded?
BorgeI don't think so, your work regarding this will be an important contribution to the Norwegian-New Zealand emigration history.

Thanks, Borge. Ok, so I have to do it the hard way! If anyone does have some info, I'd be grateful if they would contact me via the website URL in my profile - even for the smallest detail!
