[#63675] Where did Reier Stenersen Tveiten emigrate from ?

[Gjest Carla J. Tweeton]

The parish records from Veggli - Rollag have Reier Stenersen Tveten listed as applying to leave for Amerika June 25, 1883 if I have copied it correctly. He was born in 1855. I have searched every list I can find from the different ports and cannot find him. His first and last name could be spelled so many ways and I've tried to think of every spelling. He went to his sister's home in Hawley, Minnesota. Thank you.

I think he is here in the 1865-census: Lenke

[Gjest Bjørn Davidsen]

He left his parish June 25, 1883. The name is correct spelled. But the emigrant lists are not complete in Norway (or at DA) at that time.

Here we have his brother I think,Lenke,so Reier probably used the same port,Kristiania.
