[#38540] Anton Christoffersen, Drammen

[Gjest Richard Thorkee]

Does anyone have access to the Drammen church books who would be willing to do a look up for me? Anton Chrictoffersen departed Drammen April 7, 1888, on the Holland America Line ship, Drammen. Agent: Chr. Sotaaen, Kristiania, via Amsterdam to New York, destination Menomee, Wi. He arrived in the port of New York in May, 1888. I believe that this Anton may be my grandfather. He had a brother Christ who also emigrated to the US possibly in 1887 or 1888. They also had several sisters. Any information on this family found in the church book would be appreciated.
