Remarks on Digitalarkivet |
velkommen | I found my grandfather on Digitalarkivet: Emigrants from Kristiansand 1873-1930. Under remarks it reads "PAAT.RODESEDDEL". What does that translate to in English? Also, when it gives the American Line via Southhampton, do we know what the name of the Ship was?

Borge | PAAT.RODESEDDEL is a remark about the person having a signed note from the military permitting the person to emigrate.
We do not know the name of the ship from your info, but we can anticipate he landed in Philadelphia. What year was it more exact?

velkommen | The year was 1902, June 27.
