Coming back having found birth record for John Herbert Hermanson on Family Search - born 1921 in Boston, Massachusetts, and his mother was Olga Petersen.
So the family in Lowell, Massachusetts is a different family. |

This must be Johan Gustav Johansen in census-1910. Seems to have re-married.
Where are Laura and their sons Kristian Fridtjof Johansen born 22 Apr 1871 and Harald Olaf Johansen born 12 May 1873?
Laura Olsdatter b 1845, the oldest sister of John Olsen in Australia, must have died before the 1875 census. Her husband Johan Johansen is listed as a widower and living with his parents and brother:
1875
Residence: Presterudbraaten under Presterud under Nadderud
Asker, Akerhus
link
Looks like Harald Olaf emigrated from Oslo to New York 1907
Harald Olaf Johans. born 05.12.1873 (12 May)
Residence: Ø Bærum
Occupation, glaspuster.
Married. Traveling with wife Vendela Marie b 11.04.1878 (11 April)
and son Ivar Johan b 19 April 1896

A visit to Norway 1912 link
Now I see on the previous page Jackie found Carl Henning Hermanson Beck (husband of Olga Emelie) in Corning, Steuben, New York, so that's a possible location for Harald.

Harold Rudolph Anderson has two possibles. In 1905 in Iowa:

And in Corning New York in 1910:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M5HB-T76
In WWI draft registration cards, occupation as glass blower and nearest relative is Anthony Anderson:

In 1920 as a widower:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MVSJ-FKJ
In 1930 as a widower:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:X4YS-NDD
In 1940:
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:K79K-DPK
Florence Anderson daughter of Harold Anderson married Louis Larson on 11 April 1925 in Corning. Louis was employed as a "gaffer" at Corning Glass Works.
I echo Jane's remark below about the family's continued work with glass. In a very interesting article in the Evening Leader published in Corning N.Y, on Wed 26 May 1926 pg 1 col 6 the whereabouts of Harold Anderson's daughters are pretty well covered:
"LEAVES FOR NEW HOME
Miss Lillian Anderson of New York City, has left for Buffalo after spending two weeks here as the guest of Mrs. Louis Larson and Mrs. Anton Anderson. Miss Anderson will visit Mrs. Walter Larson of Buffalo, formerly Miss Helen Anderson, of this city. She will be accompanied to Buffalo by Mrs. Louis Larson, who will then go to Huntington, West Va. where she will make her new home. Mr. Larson is located in Huntington, where he accepted a position."
West Virginia, including Huntington, is also a center for manufacture of art and service glass in U.S.
Here is the address for the Old Fulton site which Jane mentioned and I have been reporting from. You might enjoy looking up these articles since they are in English. Must warn you though the site is very particular that you have the most up-to-date viewer:
http://www.fultonhistory.com/Fulton.html
While I'm on it the Australian newspaper site is called the Trove and is searchable directly at http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/
and by elephind.com

You're right. Laura Olsdatter died 23 Apr 1874 from pneumonia. |

Sad about Laura.
Anton Andersen in Steuben county, New York states on WWI draft card a birth date of 02 April 1880 (see Jackie post above).
So to be clear, this shows he is Anton Andersen, son of Christine Olsdatter b 1850 and Bernt Andersen (Christine being a sister of John Olsen in Australia). Jan Peter posted the birth of their Anton 02 April 1880. Here again: link
Old Fulton Postcards website with historical newspapers has an article about "50-year Vets" that mentions Anton Anderson and Harold Anderson. The PDF doesn't open for me at the moment.
It seems, kayryan, that glass work is a significant theme in your extended family history! picture
You asked how to post a picture. I think Jan Petrr uses tinypics website. Load an image there, and you can then post that URL here, which will show up as an image.

Poor Laura didn't even make it to 30. Harsh times back then. The spelling in the records for Christine vary to Kirstine & Kristine. On familysearch.com there seem to be 2 more babies born to a Kristine. One Gunda Berntsen 21/3/1873 & Ole Berntsen 1/9/1874. I guess being close to the Glass factory it must have been in their blood to work with glass. Such a lot of great information. I started this search knowing very little about Ole. He has become a bit more real now with all this information.

Residence: Stabækbraaten
Asker, Akershus
Bernt Andersen b 1849 Ø Bærum
Kristine Olsdatter b 1850
Gunda b 1873
Ole b 1875

Here again, at a section of the same farm, is Andreas Olsen b 1857 (twin brother who went to Australia)
link
See also other family records at Stabæk (or sub-farms of it) such as Ingeborg Oline birth 1848 and Christine birth 1850 (sisters to Ole/John Olsen).
A discussion here, about Gunda and her marriage: link
Discussion mentions Gunda Andersen b in 1873 at Stabækbraaten in Vestre Bærum, father smed Bernt Andersen. Says she married 20 March 1892 in Bryn church to Robert Paul Richard Scholz, occupation blikkenslager, who was born in Berlin. link to marriage
Probably the son in 1900
