If anyone has access to the passenger list for the British Prince I sure would appreciate a lookup. I am looking for Ole Andreassen who left Liverpool, England on April 5, 1887 and went to New York arriving about April 15, 1887. He was from Norway and was going to Fountain, Minnesota. He was 30 years old and by himself.

The American Line ship BRITISH PRINCE used to sail from Liverpool to Philadelphia, not New York. In April 1887, the BRITISH PRINCE arrived at Philadelphia on the morning of April 25th, so it would have departed Liverpool about 10 days earlier. The White Star Line ship BRITANNIC from Liverpool did arrive at New York on April 15th 1887, and the Cunard Line ship PAVONIA from Liverpool April 5th, arrived at Boston April 15th 1887. I decided to go looking for him at the Norwegian Digitalakivet . . pretty sure I found him He was from Trygstad and departed Kristiania (Oslo) on the 1st April 1887 on the Wilson Line "feeder ship" ROLLO to Hull, England with a final destination of "Fountain M" on a prepaid ticket. 01.04.1887 Ole Andres. Arb m 30 Trygstad Fountain M Helgesen A Rollo Ppd Helgesen was the American Line & Inman Line Agent at Kristiania in 1887. Here are the possible connecting ships for the ROLLO passengers http://www.norwayheritage.com/t_corresp.asp?id=2130 BRITISH KING arrived at Philadelphia April 11th 1887 (this would be too soon) CITY OF MONTREAL (Inman) arrived at New York April 18th 1887 LORD CLIVE arrived at Philadelphia April 19th 1887 Sue -- TheShipsList Website http://www.theshipslist.com/
