Thanks

Levanger is the name of a clerical district in Nord-Trøndelag, Norway. The closest city/port for departure would have been Trondheim.

It would be helpful to have at least approximate birth years for these persons for searching the emigration database from that port... but I can at least try for the more unusual names in the family.

There is a man identifying himself as 'Abel Mo' who left from Trondheim in 1882 stating his age as 49, that he is married and his intended destination is "Sioux City Jowa" --
