1885 IA Census: John A. HUSEBY Family

Unfortunately we have not been able to find John in the 1880 US Federal Census. Presumably he was farming in Section 9 of Glenwood Township in Winneshiek County where we find him in the 1885 Iowa Census.

We are fortunate to have a picture of four generations of her family.
