What I am wondering is what the procedure was for an individual wanting to purchased a legitimate steamship ticket and not be cheated?
How were individuals who purchased tickets recorded/registered for emigration by the København police? Did the person have to go to København? I hope this makes sense.
Best wishes, Rog Nelson
The first concern was with the agents, most of whom were nominally in Copenhagen.
