Martin Ole Moen

Greetings, I am researching a man named Martin Ole Moen. Born 1853 / Died in Seattle 1944. He arrived in America 1879 and found his way to the Pacific Northwest in 1901. His Mother's name was Christine Michaelson. His Father's name was Ole Johnson Moen. I have found many of his addresses while he was in Seattle. His occupations are listed as Mariner, Painter, Carpenter and Foreman for San Juan Fishing and Packing Co. Some of his PNW years are fuzzy but I cannot find anything on his first 26 years of life in Norway or where he spent the following 22 years once in North America. Can anyone suggest what resources should I be combing through or can anyone help me find more information on this man? He isn't a relative but he interests me because he lived in a dory on Puget Sound and Lake Washington during the depression.
