[?] Benjamin Thordarson was born 22 Aug 1851 at the farm Brunahvammur in Vopnafjarðarhreppur, Norður Múlasýsla. He left Iceland on the SS Björg 26 May 1873. I find him in the 1891 Norway Bergen Census as an unmarried man. Did he arrive in Norway soon after leaving Iceland? It was thought he was leaving for North America. What happened to him after 1891? Did he stay in Norway and die there? Did he leave Norway? [?] Thanks. Sunna.
