There might be a connection between the list of those who left from the parish of Tune, Østfold in August of 1879 and the group that left Arendal in June of 1881.
Tune, Østfold
Hans Larsen b 1825
Henrikke Hansdatter b1829
Marius b 1866
Mina Amalia b 1869
Hans Oskar b 1873
Helmine Petrine Hansdatter b 1858
Ludvig Hansen b 1863
Arendal, Aust-Agder
Hans Larsen b 1827
Henrikke Larsen b 1829
Tobias Larsen b 1861
Ludvig Larsen b 1865
Marrius Larsen b 1869
Hans Larsen b 1873
Mina Larsen b 1871
Malvine b 1857
Malvine must be Helene Petrine.
So did they pick up her husband or future husband in Arendal. |

I think this is Henrikke Hanson in the 1885 Minnesota State Census with two of her sons Morris (Marius) and Oskar. It may be that Marshall County would be a good place to look for the marriage of Hellene and Tobias.
So you don't think that Tobias Andreas Tolfsen =Tobias Tolfson = Tobias Andrew Hanson ? Otherwise, there will be two, or more, Tobias' living in Polk, Pennington and Marshall counties, and the marriage found in MOMS between Tobias Tolfson and Petrine Hanson in Polk refers to some other couple?
Here is one piece of pretty strong circumstantial evidence that they are one and the same:
From the Warren Sheaf published 22 Feb 1900 in the Delinquent Taxes supplement in Viking Township T155 R45,
Tobias Hanson is in arrears on se 1/4 ne 1/4 Lot 1 Sec 6
From the Warren Sheaf published 15 Feb 1894 Delinquent Tax List Viking Township Tobias Tollson is in arrears on seqr neqr Lot 1 Sec 6.
Same behavior / situation on the identical property 6 years apart.
Tobias Hanson's date of migration is kind of all over the board. The earliest is 1879 and the latest is 1887 from the various censuses. |

Okay this one may be this old fellow found in Kandiyohi county in 1940:

No I am fine with the Tobias being all those people. When I wrote the above I had forgotten your posting on the MOMS marriage records in Polk County. To much data for a small brain. |

Easy to do when names are similar and crammed into a space.
The date of arrival might be held in Tobias' naturalization records.
The vagaries of indexing are many.
The Grand Forks (N.D.) Herald reported on 11 July 1915 that on or about 10 July in Crookston Minnesota, 17 people were made US citizens. One of those listed is Tobias A Hanson.
All of the Tobias Hansons found at the Iron Range Interpretive site are these:
HANSON TOBIAS HENNEPIN
HANSON TOBIAS ROCK
HANSON TOBIAS RENVILLE
HANSON TOBIAS ROCK
These are all the Tobias of any last name found in Polk county:
EIDINSON TOBIAS POLK
JOHNSON TOBIAS POLK
JOHNSON TOBIAS POLK
OLSON TOBIAS POLK
OLSON TOBIAS POLK
TALEAR TOBIAS POLK
THOMPSON TOBIAS POLK
TOLLSEN TOBIAS POLK
TOLLSEN TOBIAS POLK
TOSTENSON TOBIAS POLK
TOSTENSON TOBIAS POLK
TOSTENSON TOBIAS POLK
VALEAR TOBIAS POLK
VALEAR TOBIAS POLK
And all Tobias of any last name in Marshall county are this:
TOLLSON TOBIAS MARSHALL
And then there is this rather unique spelling:
HANSEN TOBEAS ANDREW POLK
The Iron Range database are those from Federal records. Of course state courts and county courts can also issue naturalization records. |

The Warren Sheaf reported in either 1894 or 1900 that there was a new post office planned and it was to be called Viking and Tobias Hanson was to be the postmaster.
Today in Ancestry saw a database titled US, Appointments of US Postmasters 1832-1971 and there was the Viking post office with Tobias Hanson appointed 2 Aug 1890 and the next postmaster was Morris Hanson appointed 21 June 1891, none that I saw after that. |

I want to thank you all for your suggestions, time, interest and help. I have a lot more to go on now. Re posts:
1) about edvard hansen..it was in trying to verify that he was in my family that i found this forum. And then the dna confirmed a connection.
2) the group that left the parish in 1879 was, from my research, tobias’s wifes family ( again confirmed connections through dna). They all came to America in 1881, and he apparently came along with them listed as Tobias Larsen.
3) the suggestion that he and Tobias Tollson were one and the same warrents looking into. I did find that one of Tolf And Anne Maries children was born in norway and died in Crookston. Minnesota. Crookston is where Tobias moved to after his first wife died. He and his second wifeJulia bought a house there and proceeded to raise the kids and live out the rest of their life there. The 3 sons came to the west coast in their 20’s (one of them my grandfather ) and the daughter stayed in the midwest.
4) i have already been in contact with warren county and they can research the land records. That will help regarding the piece of land which both tollson and hanson owned.
5) I also learned about how to access these other data bases for information through this forum. I will be working on that and perhaps i can get the birth certificate.
So again thank you all. And please dont hesitate to contact me with any further suggestions

| Also the information about the postmaster assignment is like gold for me...i know about his later years but would never have known this about early years in the US. My family was very interested to hear this. |
