Tansem	Serarching for relatives or friends (or others) of John O. Tansem who settled in Clay County in 1870 (--> Tansem Town)... Grandson of John is Wallace Tansem, I'm also searching for him! [:)]
Hopkins	John O. Tansem settled in Clay County, Minnesota (Tansem township). I did ran the name Wallace Tansem through my favorite internet search engine and found this in Canada - http://www.southpeacearchives.org/fonds/fonds012.htm
Tansem	Thank you! [:D] I am also looking for some information on where John O. came from, I cannot find him in any of the local history books from Norway. Anything concerning the name Tansem is of interest! [:)]

Tansem	Thank you all, I am now in contact with a lady in Minnesota whose great grandfather was John O. Tansem. She is sending me some material on the Tansem family. But, I am afraid he wasn't any of my relatives, he may have taken the Tansem name later on, and only worked on the Tansem farm before he emigrated. None of the local history books mention neither him or any of his travelling mates....
Fiddle	My father was Edwin John Tansem, son of John and Pauline Tansem. My father was born on January 3, 1885. Clifford Tansem was my cousin. My dad played fiddle and homesteaded in Dakotas.
Tansem	I am now corresponding with a woman who is descending from John Tansem. She has sent me documents that prove that John Tansem took the Tansem name after he came to America, because there were three men (including him) named John Olesen on the same mail route. Another Ole also changed his name. I still don't know if I am related to him.
mandytansem	This is my first time on this site. I am married into the Tansem family. My husband is related to the late Wally Tansem (Wally was his great uncle). I'm not sure if you have figured out if you are related to Wally Tansem, but if I can help in anyway, I can try.
Diann Tansem	Hello. If anyone is still searching for information about Wally Tansem I might be able to help you. My father, Leroy Tansem was one of Wally's brothers. Both men are now deceased but there are many of their children and extended family members residing in Alberta, Canada.
