Stavangerfjord Sailing from New York, May 1922
Janet YeagerI am looking for my great aunt Amanda Marie Langeland Hartwig. According to her 1922 passport application she was scheduled to leave from New York to Bergen on the Stavangerfjord in May of 1922. I would like to find out if she was on that ship or if she left on a later date. The reason that I ask is that she comes back from Norway (according to both Ellis Island records and digitalarkivet) in late 1923. Any hints on how I can get this information? Janet
BorgeThe 1st and 2nd class passenger lists are available at the National Library in Oslo Norway. I don't know if the 3rd class passenger lists for eastboud passengers has survived. Børge Solem
Janet YeagerSilly question, but how do I access that info from the library in Oslo? Thanks! Janet
BorgeYou have to go there, or get someone to go there for you, as the lists has to be used in the reading room. Børge Solem Edited by - Borge on 02/09/2002 22:48:10
Janet YeagerWould you happen to have the address of the library or know of someone who does that kind of research? (Like you perhaps?) ;) Of course whomever would do it would be paid for it. Janet
BorgeIf I lived close I would gladly have looked it up, but I am far away from Oslo Børge Solem
Janet YeagerWell, then, I will just have to find another way! I would never have thought to look in the Oslo library, so I will do some research. Thanks for your help! Janet
TrondHello, A kindly person has already looked up the booklets from this journey starting in New York May 19th. There were no persons by the surname Langeland or Hartwig among the passengers on 1’st or 2nd classes. (3rd class were not mentioned in the booklet) Trond Austheim
Janet YeagerThis may be a duplicate posting. I know that Amanda returned to America in early December 1923 on the Cunard Line's Mauritania that sailed from Cherbourg France. I thought it peculiar that she would go to Norway on one line, but return on another, so her not being on that ship in 1922 makes sense. Can someone check to see if she was on the Mauritania in 1923 going to Europe? Or point me to the information so that I can look it up? Mange takk, Janet
