Thanks for your expertise, guys!

Anton Julius Hansen definitely seems to have been a 'kontorist' at the baptism of Hans Pet(t)er Antonsen (26/09/1865).
When Hans married in 1892, the city administration made some inquiries with the Swedish and Norwegian Consulate in Antwerp. Within the marriage papers, a short letter of the pastor of Ullensaker parish can be found, in which the word 'kontorist' can be clearly read.

Is there a way to track down, with some certainty, the death/burial certificate of Anton Julius Hansen? Perhaps this gives more information about his date of birth?

In 1892, Belgian immigration police registered Anton Julius as the deceased father of Hans. I am not sure, however, how accurate this information is. (Perhaps Hans himself didn't even know or had no longer contact with his father.)

A puzzling complication; at Hans Petter's confirmation in 1880, his father is listed as tjenestedreng (servant/servant boy) Anton Olsen Grøntvet: Query at forum.

The rightmost column states that Hans Peter had good knowledge and very good behaviour. (The same as the boy above.)

If all goes well this should be a list of all farms that begin with gront (I get kicked out for using the o with slash) :
https://www.digitalarkivet.no/en/search/properties?page=2&s=&from=&to=&municipality_parish=&address=Gr%C3%B8nt%2A&municipality_no=&plot_no=&unit_no=&property_no=&serial_no=&urban_property_no=&fire_ass_no=&sort=rel

Kind of all over the board from Spydeberg to Roros. Maybe Anton was actually a local boy, there are a couple of boys in the 1865 census in the place Hans Julius was born, named Anton (Julius remains to be seen). https://www.digitalarkivet.no/en/search/persons/advanced?from=&to=&jt%5B%5D=7&m%5B%5D=0235&firstname=anton&lastname=hans*&birth_year_from=&birth_year_to=&birth_date=&birth_place=&domicile=&position=&event_year_from=&event_year_to=&event_date=&related_first_name=&related_last_name=&related_birth_year=

And the confirmation record also calls his father Anton Olsen which might bring Carl Anton Julius Olsen into the picture again since in 1865 census he was counter assistant.

Or maybe office worker was aspirational but maybe not fact?
