Trying to figure out how to find out if my great great grandfather and grandmother made it to America, specifically South Dakota, from Norway. I have that they left Trondheim on the Domino Line, Domino Ship, Date of registration 10/31/1888, destination Springfield South Dakota. My great grandfather Emaus Beck Larson (last name became Magnuson when he came to America to Springfield, South Dakota) came over with his wife, Maren, the year before, 1887.
I understand that the Domino was a Feeder ship, that they transfered ships before finishing the voyage and that whatever ship brought them over went to Quebec. Records I have found on Emaus and family showed that they arrived in Quebec before going to Springfield, so I am assuming the same for Lars and family. Can anyone help me on this? My great great grandparents' names were Lars and Brynhild O. Magnussen, and they brought a daughter, Albertine, with them.
Thanks for any help or guidance that anyone can give.
