Hi:
I am looking for information about my grandfather Henry Henrysen. He came from Norway in 1898 and I think he came into the port of Philadelphia. His name in Norway was Henrik Johan Teodorsen Tuen Henriksen. I am hoping that someone can direct me to where or how I can find the name of the ship he sailed on and whether he really came into Philadelphia. The Norwegian Census for 1900 states that he was in Philadelphia, which makes me believe perhaps he came into this port. He was born in April 1879 in Norway, if that helps. He was from Egersund, Rogaland, Norway. Thank you.
