Surname(s): |
JOHNSON : WILSON | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Query Text: |
We are looking for an uncle of my wife that we probably have found in Pacific county. After a long research we think this must be a man named Iver Johnson, who married Lizzie (Elizabeth Wilson) around 1910. Iver was born In Norway January 25 1885 and went to USA in 1906.We have traced him to Eau Claire in Wisc. But since that we did loose the treads. We found many Iver Johnson, but Iver in Bay Centre, Pacific did fit quite well, although two of the children in his family was born before he arrived New York in 1906. Now we have found that his wife Lizze was divorced and had two children when she married Iver. In a old family book it is said that Iver had 12 children. In the 1930 census there is 11 children mentioned, so probably one last child was born after 1930. Iver had 16 siblings. 15 of them stayed in Norway, and we know most details about them. Also one brother, Einar, went to USA. We also managed to find him and his family. Now Iver is the last part of the Sörholt family still missing. Bye following the link below, you willl find some useful information. http://boards.ancestry.com/thread.aspx?mv=flat&m=1999.1.1.1.1&p=localities.northam.usa.states.minnesota.counties.blueearth In 1920, Iver is found in Bay Center, WA, married to an Elizabeth, her two children: Elmer and Vina WILSON, and their own children: Earl, Floyd, Darrel, Margarite, Clarence and Alvin. This Elizabeth Wilson is found in Bay Center in the 1910 census, divorced, with her children Elmer and Lavinia. Elizabeth is enumerated as a Chehalis Indian, and the children have a white father. She worked in the oyster beds, which was a huge industry in this coastal part of Washington State at that time. In 1930, Ivar [sic] is working as a crab fisherman. He and Elizabeth have her son Elmer living with them, and their own children: Earl V., Ferrill [sic], Margaret, Clarence, Elvin [sic], Ivan, Lester, Leroy, Ivar junior, and Harley D.
