Iowa. There was a widowed Johanna Taylor in Corinth township of that county for the 1880 US census and perhaps that is a match to the Johanna Andersen b. 1829 you listed above. If yes, then look again at the 1880 census. She lists 6 children all born in Wisconsin during a time period of at least 13 years. The same Wisconsin born children appear in 1870 in Emmet Co. Iowa but the parents (both born Norway) appear as Olson and Jane Taylor. So you have several possibilities of WHERE these persons ended up.
