1900 US Federal Census: Anton Erickson Family

By 1900, Johanna was living with her daughter Anna's family in Decorah Township. Anna had married Anton Erickson in 1896. Apparently Anna's brother, Henry, was also living with them and helping with the farm.

It is interesting that the record shows Johanna arrived in the USA in 1866 as we have no other records showing where Arne, Johanna, and their family were living from 1851 until then.
