He married Olivia Nielson, born in Lillisand, Norway, and who immigrated to the US in 1901. They had 13 children, one of who was my grandmother. I have been able to find them residing with thier children in NYC at the time of the 1920 census and again in Texas for the 1930 census. I have extensive information about thier many descendants but none about thier parents/siblings. Any help would be appreciated.
