My earliest Johnson was Hans Peter or Peder from Norway, m. Anna Anderson also from Norway. They settled in the Minneapolis/ St. Paul MN area as their children were born there. I don't know if they were married when they came to US or after they arrived. I've not been successful at locating them on any passenger list so think they may have entered the US through Canada. The first birthdate I have of the children is my Grandfather, John Albert Johnson, b. Aug 8, 1874. His siblings were Jennie B. Johnson Wheeler b. abt. 1882, Martin Ludwig Johnson, b. Nov. 17, 1783, Ann Johnson, Ruby Johnson, Art Johnson. I find John A. in Denver in 1900 where he married Catherine Chatham in 1903. In 1910, they were in Oakland, CA and back in Denver in 1920. The 1930 census finds them once again in Oakland. I believe Martin Johnson lived in So. California. Jennie Johnson married Dennis Wheeler, they lived in the Redding, CA area. I believe Ann and Ruby remained in Minnesota. I have been unable to find any but John and Martin on census images. Many Hans Johnsons on land grants but no way to tell if any is mine. I apologize if anyone has already mentioned this particular Johnson Family, but I have had to delete all e-mails that only say Johnson Roll Call as there were so many with no other clue and another of my Lists is also holding a Roll Call with the same problem. A bit of a clue in the Subject sure helps! Thanks in advance, Gail Vacaville, CA
