bakken snertingdal norway bacon

My great grandparents emigrated from Norway, and we think the name changed upon arrival somehow from Bakken, or Baaken? to Bacon, which is my surname.

Cornelius Bacon
Born: 22 Jan 1854
Snertingdal, Norway

I've tried to find the ship's passenger list, but evidently his crossing was one of the ones not available.

This version of the Bacon/Bakkens landed in Minnesota and the Dakotas, and my family branch eventually moved into Saskatchewan and Alberta.

I am posting to the alternate spellings, to see if I can get back to Norway and Snertingdal and other valleys there.

Pat Bacon Smith,
