                       Johne Olsen  Buer, born 1870, emigrated to U.S.A sometimes after march 1896. He returned sometime before 1910. During his stay he supposedly worked as a private guard/police/sheriff in a mining town. Is it possible to find him anywhere in the U.S in this time period?

                       He was not in America long. Another search

                       I would be very surprised if he didn't, but I need to do some research on that. A lot of people from this region moved to the U.S.
  EDIT: A very quick research show that Johnes half-brother Jacob Olsen (b. 1860) Moved to America in 1883. |

                       Family on Steensland in 1865 for the half-brother 
   1865 
  And his baptism record, looks to me like the May 19, 1860.

  A family tree on Ancestry identifies the Jacob  Olsen from Hayward Sawyer Wisconsin as a different person. Shows him as Jacob Oliver Olsen from Sør-Trøndelag
   1865 
  His baptism record, looks like Feb 26, 1860.
