Jan, thank-u, regarding the 1920 Census- New Jersey shows one Mary Olsen, b. 1857, imm. 1889. the actual dob for the children were in the 1900’s there was Robert he was born 1912 Edward 1914 Catherine 1916 and Emma 1919..my mothers mother was Marie she was born 1909 or 1910, I am not sure what happened to my great grandfather, I wonder if he was sick like his father since I don't see where there was any mention of him being in the military , only discovered where he had to sign up for the military., there are no burial records. I know my mother’s mother died young at 34, it appears Isaac’s father (my great great Grandfather) was 37, Issac my great grandfather was about 31 , my mother was only 10 so she does not recall what happened with the Aunts and Uncles. It seems like they all left the face of the earth. I Thanks Karen |

A bit hard to understand what you say here... Did you check the census and confirmed that the children mentioned lives in the same household as their grandma Mary Olsen in 1920? Earlier; you mentioned their grandma could have been named Louise...

The 1920 census just gives the names of a widow Mary Olsen, b. 1857, and her son Louis, age 24, born in NJ. No other children are listed.

In 1920 I have Catherine Anderson Head Daughters & Sons Marie,Robert,Edward,Catherine & Emma. (this is all correct). Ms.Olsen is not listed on the sheet I printed out. As far as Louise goes, my mother said that Issac mother was Louise. I told my mother that the census shows Marie for her and not Louise. She only remembers Louise and then a Aunt Kitty, who could have been Catherine. I will have to look up Marie Olsen and check what is has listed.......I was going by a previous post that had the yob wrong at first . |

Hi Nobody dies from "Insania". It might have a bit more sombre background. He might have committed suicide - maybe because he had mental problems like depression. Back then they thought: to kill oneself was an insane thing to do and therefore he had to be insane and this killed him...

I really don't want to speculate, whatever happened I don't know, and I don't think I want to share this with my mother at this point. |

Ancestry.com census for 1930, gives the following:
1930 United States Federal Census Name: Catherine Anderson Home in 1930: Newark, Essex, New Jersey Age: 14 Estimated birth year: abt 1916 Birthplace: New Jersey Relation to Head of House: Sister-in-Law Race: White Household Members: Name Age August Aickouski 25 Marie Aickouski 20 Catherine Aickouski 1 Catherine Anderson 14 The last name Aickouski is spelled wrong. It looks like the actual name should be Zickouski. August is of Polish descent.
Robert and Edward Anderson are with their mother. Catherine Anderson in the 1930 census for Jersey City, Hudson, New Jersey.
Catherine's data is questionable as her age is given as 39(born 1891) and born in New York.

I spoke with my mother regarding Lillian, apparently her mother had a sister named Emma, for what ever reason they called her Lilly, not sure why. The great grandmother that I spoke about that is Marie was born in 1854 was grandma, she apparently helped Isac (her son's) wife raise Emma when he died at 31 years of age. |

Unfortunately no information is provided on his parents. He is listed as being married to a Katherine and uses the 1910 US Census and World War I draft registration card as documentation.

I still have not been able to find out about great grandfather found this historical document that contains information about our ancestor. I think you will find this very interesting. Just click on the link below.
This is your grandfather, wife and 4 children, listed as marine engineer, I wonder if he was named after his father, there is an Issac Anderson that was big in military buried in PA. It shows here where Issac is listed without military, he did spell his name with 2 ss.
Click here to view the actual military document of our ancestor (Hurry... the above link will expire soon, click it now to see the image.)

I ran across this series of postings belonging to you about Isaac M Anderson when I "Googled" my husband's Olsen family. It took me awhile (!), but I finally figured out a connection...and, I think, verified some of your family information with census records and the Norwegian Archives. Anyway...my husband's grandmother, Karen "Carrie" (Olsen) Sonju was 1st cousin to Helga/Hilda (Olsen) Edvall. Hilda's parents were Hans Olsen and Mari. They were from Port Richmond, Richmond Co., NY. We have a picture of Carrie and her cousin Hilda taken in Port Richmond when Carrie visited from ND. We also have a few pictures of Hilda and her husband and her mother, Mari. Hans Olsen, Hilda's father, and Jens Olsen, Carrie's father, were brothers. I would be happy to share whatever information and photos I have with you, if you are still interested in researching this family. |
