Hello everyone Looking through the ISTG lists I came across Bark Musca, which left Drammen in May of 1881 for Honolulu. Aboard were 600 hundred Norwegians who had been promised work on the sugar plantations. Hard to imagine Norwegians in Hawaii. If you scroll down to the end of the list, you will find a humorus explanation of why the "emigration experiment" didn't work.[:D]
