Do you have any idea what part of SD they emigrated to. It may be especially helpful to know what county they settled in.

Try searching their names on the U.S. census at www.familysearch.org

If they came through Ellis Island you can search that database at www.stevemorse.org

Try searching their names at www.ancestry.com This is a subscriber site, but many public libraries offer it for free on their computers (at least in the U.S.)

Under USA they are listed by state, and within each state by county.

Genealogists local to the towns in South Dakota or Northa Dakota may be able to help with look-ups in old city directories.

My grandmother may be the daughter of this Sophie Moe you speak of. I've actually found this post while looking online for family in Norway or at least history. Hope this isn't too late!
