Borge, this question might be one that you are best to answer.
https://forum.nasjonalarkivet.no/topic/376000-båt-til-england-avreise-fra-norge-og-england/
Skanna materiale: Bergen politikammer / politidistrikt, AV/SAB-A-60401/L/La/Lab/L0006: Passprotokoll, 1857-1879, s. 91 - Skanna arkiver - Nasjonalarkivet nummer 4 ovenfra Hei, jeg lurer på om det går an å finne ut av når Iver Johan Salvesen reiste fra Norge til Liverpool. og evt fra Liverpool til Amerika? Er det noen som vet hvor man kan lete/ søke for å finne det, eller om det går an å finne ut av. Jeg er ikke så veldig flink med å finne frem i slike ting. Jeg holde på med en artikkel som skal offentliggjøres så det hadde vært fint å kunne lagt det med. Til nå har jeg da han var i passkontrollen, sikkert i Bergen da han ble født der. Regner med at han ikke reiste så lenge etter. Vennlig hilsen Wenche

Is he this Iver Johan Salvesen?
I think it says he died in Chicago... https://www.nb.no/items/f10202c60685b9d7b84aa0fc6ec8d5ec?page=3&searchText=%22%20Iver%20Johan%20Salvesen%22
I'm opining that it's unlikely in 1863 that he went direct to an American port during war time. Much safer to land in Canada and go across the land border (including the Great Lakes) to America. If he did land in an American port, the passenger list was required to be deposited in the first American port of call. |

| The entry in the passport register tells us nothing beyond the date the passport was issued and the intended destination. It is therefore impossible to determine which ship he left Norway aboard. However, as mentioned above, if he arrived at a U.S. port, it may be possible to identify the ship on which he arrived. Finding that information, though, could be rather like looking for the proverbial needle in a haystack. |

Looking at the data that the link I provided indicates that all ships leaving Bergen in the year of 1863 travelled to Quebec. I do not know of any online data that is available for arrivals into Canada in 1863. Also the date on the Passport Register is October 20. It would appear form the link I posted on Digitalarkivet User Forum that all the ships from Bergen left much earlier in the yer than October. Would he have then actually left in 1884?
