Not having much luck in Iowa, so here is a candidate from Minnestoa, who arrived in 1906. He is from my original list on page one. Mower County, Minnesota is just across the border from counties of interest in Iowa.

Probably the Andrew Johnson directly above in the 1920 US Census The Albert Johnson age 43 listed in the household is listed as Swedish so may not be a direct relative.

Interesting find Jackie. Here is the Andrew Johnson (the third name on your list above), his address in the 1940 US Census. was 3043 22nd Avenue South. Here is likely the same person. The address is again 3043 22nd Avenue South, although the rest of the people are different. Also the immigration year is listed as 1906. I left off the long list of lodgers.
Andier Johnson in the 1930 United States Federal Census Name: Andier Johnson Birth Year: abt 1888 Gender: Male Race: White Birthplace: Norway Marital Status: Single Relation to Head of House: Lodger Home in 1930: Minneapolis, Hennepin, Minnesota Map of Home: View Map Street address: 22nd Ave so.

Hard to make a firm identification for a single person with a common name. One of the posted records might be him. So far we're not seeing a consistent occupation to use an indicator.And the candidates don't seem to appear near family. |
