Any information on Knud Andreas Owenson (Aanensen)
born Norway 1834/5 Arrived in USA ? The rest of his
family settled in Iowa, Winnebago, Grant. Can not find him in the US but found the rest of the family in the 1900 and 1930 census. His wife is Bertha Sophie Hamre (F- Peder Hamoe)
He is the father of Arthur John Owenson b - Norway, Haugesund 1869, who married Emma Jane Daniels b-Il.
Any information will really be appreciated.
Also a brick wall is Alfred Barlow Elliott. Married to Florida Hart who was born in KY, married and had children in Shiloh, then moved to Equality, Gallatin, Illinois and had two girls: Emma Opal Elliott b- 1908 and Nyda Virginia Elliott b- 1911.
Thanks for any help I can get.

Hi,
Knud Andreas Aanensen lives in Haugesund, Rogaland in census-1865. click here

Knud is born in Torvestad parish (in Karm鼜, Rogaland).
  • Knud Andreas Aanensen, housefather, 31y, shopkeeper (retailer), born in Torvestad
  • Berthe Sophie Aanensen* (born Hamre) his wife, 21y, born in Skudesn犘havn
  • Peder Hagbarth Aanensen, their son, 3y, born in Haugesund
  • Arenth Andreas Aanensenm their son, 1y, born in Haugesund
Calculating from 1866, they are born (approx):
Knud Andreas b.1835
Berthe Sophie b. 1845
Peder Hagbarth b. 1863
Arenth Andreas b. 1865

This is probably his birth: click here

Knud Andreas AANENSEN, Birth: 01 Jan 1835, Christening: 07 Jan 1835 Place: Haugesund, Rogaland, Norway
Parents: Aanen KNUDSEN & Ane Karine ELLINGSDR

I have not found Knud or his family in the online 1875-census for Haugesund. They could have moved to another location in Norway (not all areas of Norway are covered by the online 1875-census), but most likely they have emigrated.
Since Arthur John is born in Haugesund in 1869, the emigration should have taken part between 1869-1875.

Bertha Sophie Hamre is listed as 'Sofie', born 6 July 1845 the daughter of Peder Salvesen Hamre
and Anne Helene Halvorsdtr of Skudeneshavn on the island of Karm鼜 in Rogaland, Norway. There is a large amount of information about that family included on the website called Slektsforum Karm鼜 located at http://www.slektsforumkarmoy.no/english/

In the 1900 census, it should show a year of immigration, not always accurate but a starting point.

I found Arthur J. Owenson in the 1930 census living in Tujunga California and it looks like the year of immigration is 1893 but it could be 1873. He is listed as 61 years old, age at first marriage, 21 so that makes his marriage year around 1890. His wife, Emma is listed as born in Iowa as well as the first child, Marion born 1897.

There was an 1885 Iowa state census and the microfilm can be rented from - http://www.iowahistory.org/library/library_offers/microfilm_loan_purchase.html

There are also Naturalization record microfilms for Winnebago County that can be rented from a local Family History Center.
Good luck

Knud was my great-great grandfather via his son, Dr. Henry A. Owenson, my grandmother's birth father. Please send any pictures or information my way... Thanks, Thad Meckley
