2 Gilbert Olson b. Sep 1863 WI d. aft 1920
m. 1891 Johanna Elizabeth Sullivan b. Nov 1869 NJ d. aft 1920
There is a discrepancy in year of birth for Johanna. 1910 Census says she
was born Nov 1869. 1880 Census says she gives her age as 13 (b. 1867 or
1868). It is important to determine which is correct, to determine correct
order of birth for Johanna and Maggie, and to determine if Johanna was really
the first child to be born in the U.S., and thus year of immigration for family.
In 1920 Census (taken 14 Jan), Johanna lists age as 50 (born 1869-70).
