I am looking for information on what ports where open for trans-atlantic passengers in Sweden for 1870. My g-g-grandfather Olof Ericson b. Sept 16, 1850 Jemtland, Sweden & came to the US in June 1870, he was registered at Alanaset, Hallesjo Parish, Jamtlands, Sweden in June 1870. Others who may be on the passenger list; Betsey, Andrew, Sven, Erickson. I believe he would have landed in the US in late July-August but I am not sure on the port of arrival? I have the 1900, 1910, 1920 census of Rock Creek, MN saying Olof arrived at this time. Where did ships from Sweden sail to? Any help, information, advice, look-ups is apprecaited, and if more info is needed I am happy to provide.
Thank you,
Paul Erickson
