Hi Cecilie,
again; could it be their descendants you're looking for, not the ancestors?

ancestors = forfedre, aner
descendants = etterkommere

Ola (Ole) Olson lived on section 11 of Homer Township, Day County, South Dakota. In the 1997 Land owners in Day County Click Here A Harlan Olson is listed as living on section 11. He is a grandson of Ole Click Here for an article about Harlan and it mentions Ole M.
If you go to Google and type in

you should get a his address and phone number.
Good Luck
