Erik skrev:Hi Anita,
Thank you for the additional information, much appreciated. I have tried to find Gustav in the Norwegian Immigration Protocol Database, but to no avail. Is there a chance that he could have used 'Gustavsen' as his surname, or perhaps the name of the farm on which he was living before he left Norway. Also, do you think that there is a chance that he travelled to North America via Sweden.
I am beginning to believe that he did not use 'Palm' as his surname. I am also beginning to think that he might have left Norway till much later than 1911. Signe was born on November 8, 1911, but does anyone in your family know if Signe ever had any memories of her father.
I lave looked through a number of records without any luck. The Canadian Census of 1921 will be released in June of this year, so he might show up in it, but that's assuming that he was going by Gustav Palm. Again, I think that he might have left Norway using a different surname from Palm. Also, did he have a middle name, perhaps he went by it?
Thanks.
Erik
