It was so great to see somebody from Rock County answer a query. We were there last summer, but we were given the wrong office hours and wasted a whole Sunday trying to do some research ourselves. In the hope you still might be able to help, here is more detailed information: Johan Johannssen (abt 1845-abt 1900 in Hardwick); wife Lena (abt 1850-Aug 15, 1909, in Hardwick); children -- Elevine (March 5, 1869-Jan. 29, 1949), Inga (abt 1871), Mary (abt 1873), Othillia (abt 1875), Carl (abt 1877) and Ed (abt 1879 in Norway, abt 1970 in Heron Lake). I believe everyone went by Johnson as soon as they arrived in the U.S. My wife's grandparents were Magnus Hvam and Elevine; her mother was Esther Hvam. We are retired in Texas now, so we really appreciate your efforts. Thank you.
