Sorry, I forgot to tell that in census 1899 for Windom we can find Nils Aage and his family, and one Johan Jørgen Hansen who are nephew to Nils Aage. But no Anna Andrea.

In an old letter that have been found, Aage tells that they came to US i 1880 (as already known). They first live in Windom, and in 1882 they went to Christiania Township. But Ther is nothing written about his sister Anna Andrea.
But since her ticket was payed for in US she may be have some other place to go to. Eigther people she know or some place she should start working.
In the letter Aage tells that there have been a trip to Colorado, but he does not tells why.
Does there exists censuses for eatch year?

The US has done federal censuses every 10 years since 1790. The 1890 federal census was almost entirely destroyed by a fire and very little of it is available. We have a 72 year privacy limitation on the censuses before they are released for public use - therefore the 1940 census will not be available until at least 2012.

Some states and territories did other censuses - but not all states or territories. Many of these 'state census' were done in years ending with the digit 5.

since her tickett was payed for in US, are there any places where I can find out who that payed it and where this person lived. I think that she would have traveled to visit this person when she arrived., and then we know where to start looking in cencuses.
