Looking for a passenger (family), Hans Jørgen Amundsen.

I have not found any record for a Hans Amunds* arrival in New York in 1853.

What source do you have for the voyage of a Hans Jørgen Amundsen traveling in 1853?

Church book (utflyttede, 1853), Larvik. And arrival in America/Wisconsin in 1853 confirmed.
Don't know port of the departure or ship name.
Larvik, Skien, Porsgrunn most likely
