Ancestry.com has a data base of Norwegian Baptism records. In these records they at times do not use the Norwegian naming practice of naming the son after the father. So in the case of your Herman Johansen they have given him the last name of his father. Interesting he is a twin.
Herman Alexander Hansen
in the Norway, Select Baptisms, 1634-1927
Name: Herman Alexander Hansen
Gender: Male
Birth Date: 4 okt 1878 (4 Oct 1878)
Baptism Date: 9 okt 1878 (9 Oct 1878)
Baptism Place: Sande, Vestfold, Norway
Name Note: twin
Father's Age: 19 Sep 1835
Mother's Age: 4 Nov 1849
Father: Johan Hansen
Mother: Anne Johanne Andersdatter
FHL Film Number: 1282553
Reference ID: bk 6 p 11 no61
Apparently the Nils Gregor that I mentioned above is the twin brother of Hermann Alexander. The baptism records from Digitalarkivet Parish Records can be found by clicking below and looking at numbers 61 and 62.

Hi cousin. I am Paul Bauer Johnsen. My Grandfather Andrew was your great Grandfather Herman's brother. Google "Klevjer farm" and you will get a picture of the farm taken by cousin Larry Johnson (Herman's Grandson) from Texas, and pictures of relatives including your great great grandparents Johan and Anne. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions especially about the difference in spelling. I live in Minnesota - Minneapolis west suburbs |
