Probably the record for his son Hilmar.

A person who fits what little we know of the wife of Martin Hanson is an Ingeborg Nilsdatter Gjærde born Dec 9, 1890 and found in the 1910 Norwegian Census living with family in Hordaland County.
1910
An Ingeborg Helene Nilsen Gjerde born 1890 in Lindaas left Bergen on March 19, 1907 to join her brother.
Link
That matches the year shown in the 1920 Census for emigration for Ingeborg Hansen however it does not account for how she still shows up in the 1910 Norwegian Census.
Probably her arrival in America. Going to her brother in Millbrook Illinois or Iowa?
Ingeborg Nielsen in the New York, Passenger Lists, 1820-1957 Name: Ingeborg Nielsen Arrival Date: 4 Apr 1907 Birth Date: abt 1890 Birth Location Other: sletton pr bergen Age: 17 Gender: Female Ethnicity/ Nationality: Scandinavian Port of Departure: Chrsand Port of Arrival: New York, New York Ship Name: Hellig Olav
Best guess for the brother is Rasmus born in 1885 and who left in 1903 for Ill.

The children of Nils Johan Rasmussen and Helene Kristiansdatter or Kristoffersdatter Gjerde seemed to have travelled between the US and Norway quite frequently.
Here is a Norwegian death record for Rasmus with the correct birth date of Aug 19, 1885. Fits well with the article linked by Jane on Sletta which is described as near Radøy.
Rasmus N Gjerde in the Web: Norway Burial Index, DIS-Norge, 1700-2010 Name: Rasmus N Gjerde Gender: male Death Date: 15 Nov 1950 Burial Date: 23 Nov 1950 Burial Place: Radøy, Hordaland, Norway Age: 65 Birth Date: 19 Aug 1885
And here is likely Rasmus traveling back to America from Norway in 1923. Going to Evanston Ill.
Rasmus Johan N Gjerde in the U.S., Border Crossings from Canada to U.S., 1825-1960 Name: Rasmus Johan N Gjerde Gender: Male Race/Nationality: Scandinavian Age: 38 Birth Date: abt 1885 Birth Country: Norway Arrival Date: 22 Aug 1923 Port of Arrival: Quebec, Canada Ship Name: Empress Britain Port of Departure: Southampton, England Residence Place: Nor Record Type: Manifests Line Number: 5
There is more than one Rasmus Gjerde rattling around the northern tier of states so it is a little hard to keep them all straight. Especially prone to confusion is a Rasmus Ramusen Gjerde from Saskatchewan and Montana. |

The son Aasmund born 1892 left in 1912 for Missoula Montana traveling to family. I wonder which part of the family
Lnk
And his arrival
Arsmund Gjerde in the Canadian Passenger Lists, 1865-1935 Name: Arsmund Gjerde Gender: Male Age: 19 Birth Year: abt 1893 Date of Arrival: 21 Jun 1912 Vessel: Empress of Britain Port of Arrival: Quebec, Canada Port of Departure: Liverpool, England
And Rasmus back to America again in 1909

Nice find, Anton.
Birth-Baptism Baptized in church at Lygra, Lindås prgj, Hordaland Ingeborg Helene Born 09 December 1890 Baptized 15 February 1891 Parents: Nils Johan Rasmussen, Gjerde Helene Kristiansdatter link
Lygra kirke on the link. link
Seemingly the Ancestry tree creator located similar places to Rognan and Sletta (but without having the Norwegian records) and filled in the corresponding (but incorrect) fylke.
