Rasmus Rasmussen - any census record
« on: Wednesday 09 March 11 01:13 GMT (UK) »
Hi,
Can SKS help trace Rasmus Rasmussen who married Anne Johanna Olsen in April 1893, maybe in Montana or Wyoming. They had children: Martin, Ole, Carl, Emma, Ann, Arthur Lars, Hertha, Ella, Martha, and Mary but none of the dates of birth are known.

Rasmus and Anne came from Denmark and probably settled in Iowa.

However, whatever combination I use and whichever census record I look at.... I draw a blank.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
Stenson, anywhere any dates

and possibly 1920 Posen, Howard, Nebraska

Rasmus O M Rasmussen 50 Born Denmark. Immigrated 1891. NA 1906.Farmer.
Anna Rasmussen 49 Born Germany. Immigrated 1889
Otto C Rasmussen 23 Born Wyoming. Labourert. Home Farm
Clara M Rasmussen 18 Born Nebraska
Clinestence L Rasmussen 16 Born Nebraska
Henry E Rasmussen 14 Born Nebraska
Hilda M Rasmussen 14 Born Nebraska
Rosia L Rasmussen 9 Born Nebraska.

Hmmm. Not sure on this one - Family tree entry shows Rasmus Maurice Offer Rasmussen
Born17 Aug, 1869 in Fly, Denmark or Middlefert Fehr, Denmark and Died 16 Dec, 1950 in Farwell, Nebraska. And Anna Katherina Hansen - Born 5 Sep 1870 in Halk, Schlesvig, Denmark - Germany and died 18 Jun 1943 in Farwell, Nebraska.  ???

Lisa's entry looks more like it  - this family seems to keep the same names in 1920 ;) Will leave you to it Lisa.  ;)

Another site, listing some Rasmussen details:

In 1920, you can find the family with Rasmes Rasmesen in Rockville.
