I had very good help researching Sarah Jasperson Johnson the other day. Her husband David Johnson was a norwegian too, but I struggle find him in Norway. David Johnson lived most of his life in Aurora, Illinois. I list up all the information I have about him. Born December 25th 1859 in Norway Died September 26th 1918 in Aurora, Illinois. These dates is from findagrave, I don’t have the primary source. He married in 1887: Sarah Margrethe Jesperson in the Cook County, Illinois, Marriages Index, 1871-1920 Name: Sarah Margrethe Jesperson Age: 23 Gender: Female Birth Year: abt 1864 Marriage Type: Marriage Marriage Date: 3 Sep 1887 Marriage Place: Cook, Illinois Spouse Name: David Johnson Spouse Age: 28 Spouse Gender: Male FHL Film Number: 1030166 1900 US census: David Johnson Gender: Male Birth: Dec 1858 Norway Residence 1900: Milwaukee city, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Age: 42 Marital status: Married Marriage: Circa 1887 Immigration: 1880 Race: White Ethnicity: American Wife: Sarah Johnson Children: Gerda Johnson, Clarence Johnson, Myrtle Johnson, Alice Johnson 1910 US census: David Johnson Gender: Male Birth: Circa 1859 Norway Residence 1910: Aurora Ward 3, Kane, Illinois, USA Age: 51 Marital status: Married Immigration: 1879 Race: White Ethnicity: American Wife: Sarah M Johnson Children: Gerda J Johnson, Clarence J Johnson, Myrtle L Johnson, Alice V Johnson, Florence B Johnson, Leonard D Johnson The family have told that he might have been born in the Stavanger area in Norway. I have done research on this, and I thought I had the right person in the Norwegian 1865 census. But as you see here, this David died as early as 1885 in Norway, so can't be the right person. I really appreciate all help finding this David in Norway and as an US immigrant.
