It probably only has his name and that's it, but might still be worth ordering.

What is your granfather's name? Was he Syver's son or Karen's daughter and what was his birthday? Was Oline "Lena" his aunt on his mother or father's side? I am trying to understand the full picture so I can better help you.

John Steen was married and had at least two children in Canada. See the link to FAG for the wife and children.

John Steen's death reported in Pelican Rapids paper in 1956:
