The names look clearly to be Jenson but there is this family headed by a Jens Olson which has both a Ludwig and an Otto Johnson living with Jens in Otter Tail County, Minnesota in 1875:

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:MKNG-J7Z




Here are the family in 1875:
Jens Olson Male Norway 59 so born about 1816
Maria Olson Female Norway 58 so born about 1817
Ludvik Johnson Male Norway 24 so born about 1851
Christian Johnson Male Norway 21 so born about 1854
Maria Johnson Female Norway 18 so born about 1857
Otto Johnson Male Norway 16 so born about 1859
Anna Johnson Female Norway 11 so born about 1864

Later on there are 2 different Ludwig Jenson in Ottertail County born about 2 years apart. One or neither are from the family.

This is from MOMS marriages of male Jenson/ Jensen in Ottertail county from the 1st record to the end of 1890:

You could do the same sort of list of Johnson marriages since there is evidence that they began using Johnson instead of Jenson along the way.

Not a bad approach is to start with the Tree I linked to on Ancestry.com and see where that leads you. The Tree will give you some names to follow but you need to find sources to insure that the Tree is giving you correct information. The Tree suggests that Ludvig used the name Martin Ludvig Jensen and that he married

Konc Oline (Lina) Holo
1852–1887
BIRTH 18 SEP 1852 • Dean Co, Wis
DEATH 28 OCT 1887 • Battle Lake, Mn

Is a long and sometimes laborious route to find all the people and the records needed to insure that the people are who you think they are. Here are some records for Martin Ludvig Jensen.

Martin Ludvig Jenson
in the U.S., Find A Grave Index, 1600s-Current

Once you get into Ancestry will open up a lot of records associated with the person. For example for Ludvig.

Here is a confirmation of one of the children of Ludvig and Olina.

In the 1865 Census posted by Jackie a few pages back there is a Xistine born about 1849. I do not remember if she was on the ship with her parents but this is likely her in Minnesota. Same parents as Ludvig and she also married a Halo.

There is a ton of information on both the Ludvig and Christine families on Ancestry.

The Tree indicates that the other children died rather young. This is probably the FAG record for Otto.

BURIAL
Trefoldighed Lutheran Church Cemetery
Battle Lake, Otter Tail County, Minnesota, USA

I found a dna match to a relative of INGEBORG MARIE LARSDOTTER, my g-g-grandmother.
I guess that settles it. My people are from Eidsvold.

If all goes well and this article mentions the same Jens Olson, it says that he lived here (Otter Tail county) for some time and now lives in Lincoln, Nebraska:

Due to a fire, parish records in Eidsvoll are hard to come by. But there are a few for the time frame 1861 to 1868 that contain records for members of your family

Here is the baptism for Emma Louise born August 21, 1863. The farm is vestre Braaten.
