I´m searching for info on Anton Julius Jensen, born 1853 in Borge, Østfold, Norway. His parents were Jens Paulsen and Anne Halvorsdatter Aarum.
I think it might be Anton with wife Caroline and a child in Lac Qui Parle, Minnesota, in 1880.
There is an Anton Julious Jenson who died in Yellow Medicine Co., Minnesota, in 1930.
Can he be found in the 1910, 1920 and 1930 censuses ?
I would like to know if this is the right man, and if he had any children.

On May 2, 2009 Ellen Jensen posted this on her Family Tree for Anton J. Jensen.
Anton joined the Norweigan Navy and jumped overboard when they were close to American soil and swam ashore.
Anton and Caroline ran a store in Canby, Minnesota for many years.
They moved into Minneapolis in 1910. They celebrated their 55th anniversary at their home, 3255 Olive Avenue North,
Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1933. Anton celebrated his 80th birthday at the same time.
