John R Kloster b. Feb 1860 Norway

hiya~ I am trying to find out info on my great grandfather his name is John R Kloster he was born feb 1860 in norway. I only found this out through doing family tree research the only info I have on him is through a 1900 US census for Covington, Dakota, Nebraska. No other info is showing up on him I have no idea where in Norway he was born or anything my grandmother never talked about her family
