Emigration from Sweden

Legg inn av Brenda Hammond » 02 apr 2005 06:26:34

It's been mentioned to me that there is an emigration CD and I'm wondering
if someone can do a lookup for me?

My great grandmother Signe Helfrida Andersdotter (Anderson) departed Sweden
for the USA in March of 1913 onboard the "Olympia". I have a photo of her
with 6 other people onboard this ship and I'm wondering if someone could
tell me who the other passengers were onboard the ship at the same time as
her?

Also where the ship departed Sweden and where it was going in the USA?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

There is one entry for March of 1913:
First name: Signe H
Surname: Andersson
Age: 0 (could be no entry)
Parish: Dörarp, County: G (=Kronobergs län)
Titel: none
Port of departure: Göteborg
Date of departure: 1913-03-28
Destination: Chicago, IL
Co-travellers: Yes
Source Code: 98:311:7834

Strange enough, there are no other passenger listed on the CD for that
Source Code, which actually is the contract number for the travel.
There were 17 other persons who travelled from Göteborg to various other
places in the US. No-one to Chicago.

Do you know her age? I assume she wasn´t born 1913...

You can mail me directly if you want more information. My email address is
valid.

Your information is jumbled up. The correct name of the ship is the
Olympic. The Olympic's passenger manifest includes a Signa Andersson, age 24
from Dorarp, Sweden. The Olympic sailed on April 2, 1913 from Southampton,
England to New York City. Your great grandmother would have taken some other
ship or ships from Sweden to Southampton.

The Olympic was sister ship to the Titanic and Britannic. The Olympic could
carrry 750 1st class, 500 2nd class and 1150 3rd class passengers. You can
view all the Olympic's passenger manifests at http://www.ellisisland.org.
