In 1920 US census Hans Thronson (and wife Hilma) appears in Minneapolis, Minn. census on Lincoln St. N. That census appears to list him born about 1886 in Norway and immigrated in 1907. Hilma listed as born about 1888 in Norwayand immigrated in 1905. He appears to have started the papers to become a naturalized citizen and those can be valuable sources for future research. (Double check that census with your own viewing.)
Based on that information and your previous information given -
Your Hans Thronson/Trondsen appears in the 1900 Norwegian census in Drammen, Buskerud, Norway with parents and siblings -
Grønland St. 1900 census
Even the transcriber noticed the boy Hans listed with wrong sex on the census form.
It is interesting that they have dropped the traditional Norwegian naming pattern and instead are using the surname Trondsen - easily adaptable to American spelling of Thronson.
Hans leaves from the port of Oslo/Kristiania on or about 23 March 1907 -
