1930 census for Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, have this listing: Adolf Johnson, born 1895, Norway = Edy? wife: Louis Johnson, born 1901 = Lucie ? son: Kenneth Johnson, born 1926
What place of birth are listed for Louis and Kenneth?
Could this be Adolf?

-------------- Jan Peter. The people who posted this inquiry are friends of mine and they asked me to take a look at the information that had been gathered in here.
It looks like this family in Pennsylvania could be the ones they are looking for. The 1930 Census states that the mother was 24 years old when she was married and this is the age that Johanne Lucie was when she immigrated to the United States to be married.
Adolf was 6 years older and a machinist for a Tobacco Company. This fits with age and occupation for the Adolph Johnsen you found immigrating to New York in 1924.
So the timeline would be.
March 1924 Adolph Johnsen immigrates to New York November 1924, Johanne Lucie immigrates to be with her fiance, Adolph and they are married in 1924. Johanne Lucie is age 24. 1930 Census. mother of household is age 30 and has been married for 6 years. They have a son Kenneth who was born around November, 1926. The census was taken April 1930 and he was listed as 3 1/2 years old.

i have found Johanne's 1943 Declaration of Intention to become a U. S. citizen. She is living in Charleston, South Carolina. Her husband's name is Gustav Adolph Johnsen, born May 7, 1895 in Norway. They were married in Brooklyn on Nov. 19, 1924. and their children are Kenneth (born 1926) and Mildred (born 1931). That 2000 death of Kenneth Johnsen that Erik posted is her son.
Also, the Social Security Death Index shows the death of an Gustave Adolph Johnsen on January 12, 1992. He was born on May 7, 1895 and his Social Security Number was issued in South Carolina. It is very likely that is Johanne's husband. Unfortunately, it doesn't show his place of residence.
I can send the image of Johanne's declaration to anyone who contacts me directly.

To everybody who have been searching, and especially Roy. Many thanks. The descedants in this request are found. The person I got in contact with ( Kenneths sister) first words was " I have been waiting for this moment all my life". Hopefully this gives all a good feeling. |
