Fred C Rill's wife, Clara M. Johnson, has a father from Norway. Clara's father was Martin Johnson, born 1851 in Norway and emigrated in 1867 per the 1900 USA census.
Martin had his mother living with them in the 1880 census. Her name is Johannah Johnson, born 1804.
The Minnesota death index has a person with the same name and birth year, that died 9 October 1909. She would be famous to have lived so long.

From familysearch I found one Fred C. Rill born about 1874
in Of, Lake City, Wabasha (my Fred is born 1869 as mentioned).
It can be the same person. The fathers name: Casper Rill and
mother Maria Dorothy Scharnhurst. Am I on the right line

Casper and Mary Rill are in the 1910 Census, for Lake City, Wabasha County, MN. They both immigrated from Germany.
Casper: age 76
Mary age: 73
Son Albert: age 34
Son Ralph: age 31
Daughter Minie: age23
Rill seems to be a German name. I see no heritage to you with the info you have given.
