Hello Friends,
Where may I find general information covering Norwegian and Swedish emigration via Trondheim in 1924?
Was an Agent recruiting for Canada present there providing package ticket deals, or were emigrants on their own? Were there Agents perhaps elsewhere, say, Ostersund?
The Norwegian digitalarkivet has emigrants listed or registered as emigrating fra Trondheim even though from reading the records it's obvious they left Norway mostly from Bergen in the south.
Why was record keeping done this way?
How would they control that the prospective emigrant actually left Norwegian soil?
Were emigrants at Trondheim escorted onto ships to England or to Bergen?
Or did they board trains at Trondheim for Bergen and then ship to England or directly to Canada? And why to Bergen and not Kristiania or Stavanger which are closer to Trondheim by rail?
Thank you for any guidance you can offer me in understanding the emigration process through Trondheim.
