Here is a 1892 Wisconsin wedding record for Maria Larson, daughter of Lars Larson and Maren Gulberson: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XZQ4-5M8

This record doesn't give any ages, as far as I can see, but the couple can be found in the 1900 census, with a birth for the wife/bride in April 1873, matching the age of 7 in the 1880 census:

And look who lives with Otto and Mary in 1930! Surname Anderson this time ties the bits nicely together.

Lars and Maren's daughter Maria, born ca. 1873, was born in Waukesha, according to this source; did we know that?

No the actual birth place for Maria was up in the air between Norway, on the ship or Wisconsin. But the 1880 Census does list her birth place as Wisconsin. So it is good to have another document with her birth place as Wisconsin.
