Norway emigration records
I do not have access to Arkivdigital so hand copies link-- https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QLGW-DZ24
This should be page 368. Family at bottom Sven Johan Modig. Daughter Nanny Charlotte notes at end of her line indicate she moved to Kristiana, Norge Oslo, Norway. If that is correct and if she then moved to America (other sisters did) where might I find emigration info to show she did? Thank you much. Deniese

All other sources I have on Nanny show place of birth as halleberg, kronoberg. Can that be reconciled with skattegaard? And I only have acces to riksarkivet. Can I use that to follow Nanny or see if she did move to America?

Deniese, I'm not a Swedish researcher so I'm not that helpful. The source of her birth in Helleberga is sourced well. I think one possible method to know more about her is to review the death information of her sisters: Anna d. 1965, or sister Emma d. 1926, Ida d. 1948. One of these may mention where she is living.
