Olaf Ingval Olsen and Gina Fredriksen from Faberg first have a stillborn child in November of 1888 and then get married (entry 10) a month later.

9 months after that I find her emigrating by herself to North Dakota. When she leaves she says she is married, but on ancestry I see her arriving in Vancouver and she is listed as an unmarried domestic worker.

I can't find Olaf again- the closest emigration record I can find is this one using the initials O.J. which the J may have been an I?

Do you think that looks possible? I can't find his arrival records nor can I find them together in America. Also no leaving the parish records- does this look like a normal emigration of a young married couple?
