[#5865] Ship Crew List

[Gjest Dianne Bates]

Hello I am trying to find a crew list of a ship called "Boy Bendixen", my ggrandfather listed this ship on his naturalization papers. My ggrandfathers name was Edward Hansen born 18 January 1848 in Moss, County Ostfold, Norway. In 16 October 1868 "Boy Bendixen" Captained by Johan Mathiesen, arrived in Mauritius from Chincha and Callao (Peru) with a cargo of guano. On 15 November "Boy Bendixen sailed for Melbourne, Australia. On 23/24 December "Boy Bendixen arrived in Melbourne. On 18 January 1869 "Boy Bendixen sailed again for Guam. My ggrandfather left the ship in December 1868 and spent the rest of his days in Melbourne, Australia. I have been informed that "Boy Bendixen" is a Norwegian registered ship and that the crew list will be in Norway. Can someone please tell me how I can get a copy of this list. Many Thanks Dianne
