LØYST: Eli Hanson farmarhuslyd i Modena township, Buffalo Co., WI 1870 - kan nokon hjelpa meg identifisera dei?

[Lars E. Øyane]

I ein freistnad på å identifisera dei tidlege norske emigrantane til Buffalo Co., WI står eg fast på denne huslyden som er plassert midt imellom ein heil masse emigrantar frå Luster i Sogn.

 

Diverre er handskrifti svært vanskeleg å lesa: Huslyd #1917 på denne sida: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S3HT-6Q6Q-M8

 

Eg les følgjande:

* HANSON, Eli 50 år farmar f. Norway

* HANSON, Christina 17 år dotter f. Norway

* HANSON, Christ 11 år son f. Norway

* HANSON, Sarah 8 år dotter f. Norway

 

Greier nokon å identifisera denne huslyden, ville eg setja kjempestor pris på det!

 

PS: Eli er ofte ei «amerikanisert» form av Elias.  Elles kan det godt tenkjast at dei flytte vidare, for eg ser ikkje noko meir til dei i Buffalo Co., WI!

 

Eg takkar so mykje på førehand for alle gode tips!

? Kan være et skudd i blinde, men det er en del her som stemmer:

Finner dette på Findagrave, fornavn og alder stemmer bra. Hvis dette er riktig familie så er Eli feilført som mann i 1870-tellingen.

Source: History of Buffalo and Pepin Counties, Wisconsin, Volume 2 Illustrated; compiled by Franklyn Curtiss-Wedge, published by H. C. Cooper, Jr. & Co., Winona, Minn. (1919) pages 581-582 transcribed by Mary Saggio.

CHRIST C. SERUM, a retired farmer residing at Urne, was for many years one of the leading representatives of the agricultural class in Modena township, Buffalo county. He was born in Norway, November 28, 1858, son of Christ and Ellen (Hanson) Serum. In 1860 his parents emigrated to this country, bringing with them their four children: Anna, Christiana, Sarah and Christ. The voyage across the Atlantic was made in a sailing vessel and it was three months after they embarked before they reached port. Striking out for the Northwest, they settled first in Dane county, Wisconsin, but remained there only a short time before they resumed their journey northwestward until they came to a halt in Buffalo county and established themselves in Norwegian valley, where they remained three years. The father died when the subject of this sketch was but seven years old, and it was chiefly to the mother that the children owed their start in life, as it was she who secured a homestead of 120 acres in Modena township, section 4, to which there was a trail cut through the woods, but no road. There she settled with her four children, two cows and an ox team, and as Christ was only a young boy and the other children girls, the labor devolved almost entirely upon herself. What that labor was every early settler knows, but she persevered and established a home, where she finally passed away at the age of 77 years, leaving a record that marks her as a woman deserving of high honor. She was a member of the Norwegian Lutheran church and was buried in Church valley, where her husbands remains also repose. Christ C. Serum remained on the old farm and took an active part in its improvement. He built a new log house, larger and more convenient than the original building, also a good barn and silo. As a general farmer and stock raiser he was successful and also became a shareholder in the packing plant at South St. Paul. A member of the Lutheran church, he served on its official board. He continued his farming operations until August, 1918, when he retired and took up his residence in Urne, where he is now living. Mr. Serum married Carrie Christianson, who was born in Norway, January 29, 1859, daughter of Sever and Anna Olson, who came to the United States in 1869, crossing the ocean in seven weeks, and settling in Fillmore county, Minnesota, whence six years later they moved to Modena township, Buffalo county, for their final residence. Mr. and Mrs. Serum have had the following children: Ella, Anna, Olaus, Sever, Albert, John, Elmer, Carl, Mary, Melvin, Arthur, Clara and an infant that died unnamed. Clara and Anna are also now deceased. Elmer is now a member of a machine gun company in the American army serving in France. Sever and Olaus (twins) have been drafted for service.

Takk til Lars for at hun oppdaget at Eli er kvinne!

Innlegg #10:

 

Kjempebra!  Eli Hansdotter har verkeleg «halde meg for narr», men hjarteleg takk til Lars J. for oppklarande opplysningar og til Anton for supplement.

 

Denne huslyden kjenner eg godt frå før, men so var det dette med namnet...

 

Problemet er løyst, og eg er kjempenøgd!

 

No står det berre att for meg å finna ut kva tid Christen Christenson (Serum) døydde, første mannen til Eli...  Han var fødd i Luster 25.3.1826 og må vera avliden før 1870!
