My grandfather & his family went from Norway to Hull, England &. Thence to Quebec, Canada and from there to Chicago by rail. Records at St.olaf's college MN say they came on Allyn or Allan ship line. My Great gr.father kept a pretty detailed diary of the trip., But nothing about what immigration office location or the specific name of the British ship.
I am pretty sure that Sue will be able to tell what ship it was, if you have the date when the ship arrived at Quebec. We do have an "Allan Line" page, you will find it by clicking the "Shipping Lines" link in the left frame. Actually my gggrandfather was the head agent for the Allan Line north of Dovrefjell.
I am very interested in the detailed dairy that your ggrandfather wrote, would you consider sharing it?
Allyn or Allan Line from Hull , Eng
