Hi!
Could anyone look up which one of the following is the correct one (I'm looking for Ola Johnson, born in May 1875 in Sweden) in 1900:
Ola Johnson, Lane Co., Kansas, born abt. 1876 in Sweden
Ola Johnson, Dakota Co., Minnesota, born abt. 1876 in Sweden.
Thanks
Markus

I don't have enough information to decide for you which is the one you want so if you will send me a pm with your email address, I'll forward the scans to you and you decide yourself.

No, it was none of them...  :'(
His name could also have been Olof Johnson. He was born in May 1875 in Sweden.
Thanks

No, it wasn't him either...
Can you look up Ola Swanberg in Hennepin Co., Minnesota 1900 and see if he was born in May 1875.
Thanks

Markus, Its a very scribbly entry but the transcriber obviously believes its Ola and the date is right, so it's on its way to you.

Best wishes
Mary
