Additional information

Robert Anderson (28.02.2015)

This is likely Andreas Syverson Skavelden, who went by the name Henry S. Anderson in the US. B. Dec. 16 1845, Nord Aurdahl, Valdres, Norway. D. Oct. 6 1930, Park River North Dakiota. Son of Syver Adnerson, passenger 45 and Marit Andersdatter, passenger 75, and siblings Erick, Andres and Syver (passengers 46-48). Ag is wrong for many of the children but the names and time frame match the emigration records for Nord Aurdal. See additional notes at Syver and Erick entries.

Correction: Marit Andersdatter is passenger 127.
