Immigrasjon til Norge

[Ingar Johnsen]

Etter å ha utvandret til Amerika var det mange som ga opp og vendte hjem. Det er årene rundt 1920 som er interessante i denne omgangen. Finnes det kilder over hjemvendte utvandrere - eksempelvis passasjerlister eller lister fra innreisekontroll.

Ingar !

FT 1920 har eit spyrsmål om dei som har vore i Amerika i minst 2 år, og når. 

Dttee spyrsmålet ser du ikkje i Transkirbert FT 1920, KUN i den skanna.

Tusen takk for svaret. I dette tilfellet er det ingen tvil om at han faktisk hadde vært i Amerika og kommet tilbake. FT1920 forteller årstallet. Det er imidlertid en spesiell historie knyttet til denne personen og det ser ut til at datoen for hjemkomsten kan være avgjørende for om historien bygger på folkesnakk (noen kaller det bygdedyret) eller ikke.

For de som vendte hjem fra Nord-Amerika og Sør-Amerika, prøv (via Ancestry) UK and Ireland, Incoming Passenger Lists, 1878-1960  

About UK and Ireland, Incoming Passenger Lists, 1878-1960This database is an index to the Board of Trade’s passenger lists of ships arriving in the United Kingdom and Ireland from foreign ports outside of Europe and the Mediterranean. Exceptions to this are vessels that originated outside of these areas but then picked up passengers in European or Mediterranean ports en route. The UK port of arrival was not necessarily the final destination of the ship. In addition, the names found in the index are linked to actual images of the passenger lists, copied from The National Archives (TNA) collection series BT26. The passenger lists date from 1878 to 1888 and 1890 to 1960. However, many of the pre-1890 lists were irregularly destroyed by the Board of Trade in 1900. Therefore, there are not many lists included in this database that date from these earlier years. Separate lists were kept for British (and Commonwealth) passengers and Alien passengers. In addition, there was a variety of form types used throughout the years. These differences in forms may result in a variety of information recorded for different passengers.When it is available, the following information is included in this index:

• Name of passenger
• Birth date or age
• Arrival date
• Port of departure
• Port of arrival*
• Ports of voyage, if recorded
• Vessel name
• Shipping line, if recorded
• Official number, if recorded
• Source information (TNA collection number, piece, and item numbers)

*The Ports of Arrival listed are the final destinations of the ship. However, if the ship had a stopover in the UK en route to another destination, it still had to have a passenger list filled out.Additional information such as the passenger’s occupation and intended address in the United Kingdom may also be listed on some forms. From the 1930s entries included the abbreviation, “T”, if the visit was for the purpose of tourism. Be sure to view the image of the original passenger list for any additional information relating to a passenger. Keep in mind that some passenger lists were several pages long – you may need to use the “Previous” and “Next” buttons in the image viewer in order to see all of the images relating to a particular list.

Tusen takk for tipset. Foreløpig har det ikke vært noen suksess, men jeg søker videre.
