Hi all, my great grandfather's brother, Kristian Albert Hovliksen Tevik, emigrated to the US in 1911, to join three brothers who had already emigrated. However, Kristian Albert later changed his mind and, in the 1920 census, he was back in Norway. He I'm trying to find out when he returned to Norway. Appreciate any help or useful tips on where I can find relevant information, e.g., passenger lists for passengers emigrating from the USA to Norway.


Many thanks,

Sorry Trond but in my experience you have a very difficult task. There seems to have been very few if any records kept on passengers leaving the US in the early 1900's. Lots of records on arrival but little to none leaving.
