Hello , I chuckled at your Ole Olsen comment. Are you by any chance Norwegian or part. I am from Waukesha Wis originally (Now live on the Ohio river in southern IL.). I have been searching for my Erickson`s in Layfayette co. Wi. I did find over 1400 Erickson`s on the 1820 thru 1907 census list. I did find some in that county. But now I have to dig deeper. Guess I need to take a trip up there to Argyle Wi. I do subscribe to the Norweigian Digest, do you? Just curious, Nancy
