Based on the 1900 US Census it would appear that he came to America in 1881, married his wife in America in 1892. So he lived as a bachelor for about ten years before he married.

It is so strange that I am not able to find Marie Dalberg in Census 1905. She did not return to Norway before 1906. And should be in Census. But I have found nothing.
She gives birth to a baby girl on the 7. July 1904 in MN, named Beatrice Evelyn. But I can't seem to find any records of her either.
Her fathers name is said to John (Ian) Charles Clarcke. And he to be a man working by law, attorney or something like that. I have no more information on him, no birth year or please. So it is not easy to look for him. I thought maybe Marie could have been married to him in 1904-1906. As she is mentioned as his widow in a later birth record of 1908 in Norway.

That is correct. I have records of him, as he got the contract of building the new fire station in Rochester:
