Erickson died of typhoid on boat |
Mary Ellen Brue | Looking for the name of the ship that Erik Thorgrimson Erickson and his wife Birgit with their 2 young daughters (one named Rena) sailed on sometime in 1869. Erik and one daughter died of typhoid enroute.
Thank you for any help provided.

Borge | Do you know from what port in Norway they departed?

Mary Ellen Brue | I think they were from Lårdal but I don't know where they sailed from. Birgit's second husband-our gr grandfather came from Vinje Telemark and sailed from Skien to Quebec in 1869 but they were not on the same ship.
