All "Se (which means see in Swedish) Andersson means is that this person was listed twice: once with his patronymic name Andersson and once using the surname Löwenborg. No ship names are listed on the Emihamn datbase, which this is.

Send an email to the Landsarkiv (Regional Archive) in Göteborg and they will be able to tell you the name of the feeder ship which took these people over to Hull or Grimsby in England, plus the name of the travel agent and this will be free IF you provide all of the above, including the source number. (If they need to redo that search I just made, you will have to pay them to do so.) They will not be able to tell you the name of the larger ship used to take them to their final destination. There was no reason at all for the Swedish port police to keep track of that sort of information back then.

landsarkivet@landsarkivet-goteborg.ra.se

This sort of question should be asked on the General Sweden board here on Rootsweb. ;-)
