Hi Colly,
Yes, the original New York arrival list is available through Ancestry. I
had a look and found that the May 1887 HEKLA trip arrived at New York on
June 10th 1887 ... the only "Anna" 1872 which fit was Anne M. travelling
with a 17 year old, only he was single male "Chr." (Christian ?)
I then went and checked the Danish emigration archives and the other
details, such as their last residence seemed to fit with what you'd written.
