Hi, I'm not sure of the middle name for Andrew "G". Johnson born in Norway 1858, although he had six children, one had a middle name of "Gilbert". He did naturalize in San Francisco CA on December 2, 1884. Would be great to find him in his country or origin, Norway
Thanks I have the 1900 census (i'm on ancestry.com).
Who were the witnesses to the naturalization? Do you have a hard copy of the document? |

Outside the +/- 5 years rule, here is an Andrew Goodmanson b. abt 1852 Norway, a captain in the 1880 census at San Francisco, California:
https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/M6PW-M9Q
He may be the same as Andrew Bennet Gudmunsen b. 1852 Norway found in the California great registers database as being at 722 Grove in San Francison on 19 July 1876.
Here is the confirmation #30 of a possible for Andrew Bennet Gudmundsen named Andreas Bertin Gudmundson b. 8 Feb 1851 : Source information: Hordaland county, Manger, Parish register (official) nr. A 7 (1860-1870), Confirmation records 1868, page 185. Permanent pagelink: http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=8293&idx_id=8293&uid=ny&idx_side=-182
Not a good match to your Andrew b. 1858 in Arendal, but he followed the same occupation as yours, captain, with a strong reason to have a "G" and seems to disappear from California records at about the same time as your Andrew begins showing up. |
