Could Hilda Lammassaari have been born 25.05.1887 in USA or Canada and later immigrated to Finland (Vaitolahti-Kalastajasaarenno-Fiskerhalvøya) via Norway?

The population register for people moving out of Oslo 1915-1930 should give you information of address and possibly employment/earnings, but it is unfortunately not open to the public. These are the cards:  https://www.digitalarkivet.no/en/search/sources?s=&from=1915&to=1916&format=all&archive_key=&st[0]=FOLR&m[0]=0301 Arkivverket can give you information if you send them a request. I checked the adressbooks on the national library for 1915 and 16, but he is not listed in Kristiania, but he can still have a registration card.

Taking a quick look at the sources, employee lists for "Store Norske" on Spitsbergen have been scanned. However, not for the period your grandfather worked there, and sadly what has been scanned has the most recent data in the 1950s, which means we don't get access to any of it 😕

 

In Oslo, though, there is some scant hope... there were in fact municipial censuses for both 1915 and 1916, and they have been scanned, but not transcribed and made searchable yet. In all likelihood your grandfather is in there somewhere, but without a street address or something, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

 

Thanks for the info.
the archive recommended the following:
"You will have to carry out the actual research yourself or hire a professional genealogist for this purpose. If you are struggling, we have an online forum where you can ask other users for advice (https://forum.arkivverket.no/forum/6-brukernes-eget-forum/ )." 

Maybe you know someone like that?

Got a response from the archives. Unfortunately there is no data.
