Passengers on the Hovding 1873 to NZ
acayless	Hi, I believe that my Great Great Grandparents were on this sailing to New Zealand. Their names were Anton and Helen Amundsen (nee Hansen). Also they had a baby girl on-board ship in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. They named her Emily Antonia Atlantica Amundsen. She was my Great Grandmother. Does anybody know anything more about them, please? I believe that they were both born in Christiania and that they may have been living in Naess, Kraagstad, just before they left for New Zealand on the Hovding in 1873. I would love to find out if there are any living relatives left in Norway. If anyone can please help, I would be so grateful.

acayless	Hi, Thank you so much for all your help. You guys are amazing! Such a lot of information and so quickly! I wonder if you may be able to help me again. I have been searching for Karen and Antons parents on the 1865 census and have not been able to find them or Anton and Karen either. I dont know if I am doing something wrong or not. If someone could please help me to find out more information, I would be so grateful, their details are as follows: Anton Emil Amundsen - Born 16 May 1850 in Naes, Akershus Christened 16 June 1850 in Ullensaker, Akershus His father: Amund Jensen His mother: Kari Amundsdatter Married Karen Helene Hansdatter on 6 February 1873 in Trefoldighet Menighet, Akershus Karen Helene Amundsen born 1845 Christened 13 July 1845 in Krakstad, Akershus Karen's father: Hans Holmsen Karen's mother: Elen Johannesdatter I would especially like to find out Karen and Anton's brothers and sisters names and the name of their farm if they had one. Also dates of birth and death for the parents. Please if these names ring a bell or if anyone can help me to find out more about the family further back it would be so wonderful. Thank you so very much for all your help, Astrid Cayless
