Parents: Arnie Anderson and Julia Ellingson
Hans and Ingeborg Arnesen (Anderson) of the farm Naversaeter. Hans (Naversaeter) Anderson married Ingeborg Eriksdatter of the farm Aaberg in 1861 in Sogn, Norway.
In 1867 they sailed to America with their three small children: Julia, Maggie, and Arnie. The trip took over seven weeks, all the while they were totally dependent upon the wind. They encountered a calm while in route and resorted to trying an Old Norwegian superstition. Someone climbed the mast and drove a nail into the top of it. Soon a wind started blowing.
After arriving at Long Island, NY, they bought a team of oxen and started out for Dane County, Wisconsin. Possibly Sun Prairie, Wis. Arriving there safely, they spent the next one and a half years working hard to buy needed supplies: Covered wagons, oxen, yokes, feed, etc.
In 1869 they left there to join other friends that had settled near Adams, MN. They encountered another obstacle, that of crossing the Mississippi River. They built an 18x18-foot raft using Burr Oak logs they cut near shore. They wove the logs together using wild grapevines they found growing near by. They were successful in transporting their oxen, wagon, supplies, and family across in one trip. They then pulled their raft to shore, tying it to a near by tree leaving it for others to use.
Hans and family homesteaded about one mile north of Adams, building a 16x30 log cabin on the corner of their land. They had about 160 acres of land, some of which was wooded. Hans and Ingeborg had 10, possibly 14, children.
Hans died June 23, 1910, at the age of 75. Ingeborg died October 17, 1928. She was 87. Both are buried in the Little Cedar Cemetery in Adams, MN.
