Query by crusher45

I am looking for My husbands 3rd great grandfather & his wife born in Norway . Their Son OLE and his brothers came to AMERICA in 1882. I think they were from Eker Buskerud Norway, but not sure. They came to America on a CATTLE BOAT, but I cannot find their immigration point of entry.Ole had to change his name when he entered America because the registrar had enough TORGERSENS for the day. So, OLE got the name of the farm he worked at in NORWAY THE GAARD FARM. The man miss spelled it so his name became GORUD. Ole came to Wisconsin, married and raised a family,he died in 1921.Thank you for any help.
