Notes:

Or Johanne G.

He registered for the draft in Union County, Oregon, on June 5, 1917. Although his birthdate is given as February 4, 1890, his age is 28 so the draft registrar fumbled the subtraction. John E Anderson lives at 2108 Adams in LaGrande, Oregon, where he owns an auto garage. He is married with a wife and three children. He is described as of medium height and build with blue eyes and brown hair. (His brother Herman must have been living with him at that time. Herman used the same address.)

In the 1920 census, he is the 28 year-old John E Anderson, an automobile salesman living at 1808 First Street in La Grande in Union County, Oregon.

In the 1930 census, he is the 40 year-old John E Anderson, a wholesale and retail butcher living with his family in Coos, Coos County, Oregon. He is not a veteran.

In the 1940 census, he and Catherine live in Salem with their son Eugene and his family. John was an automobile salesman working 60 hours a week.

He registered for the World War draft in 1942 as John Edward Anderson. At that time, he and Catherine lived at 270 W. Miller in Salem, Oregon. He was employed by the Armsberger Motor Co. of Salem.

Cathleen in the 1920 census, Catherine R in the 1930 census.

She is probably the 15 year-old Catherine Crane living with her parents and siblings in Seattle in the 1910 census.

Lived next door to the Erik Petersons in the 1895 state census.

“Killed at the brickyard crossing” in Little Falls, Minnesota, in the winter of 1899-1900. He was hit by a train while hauling cut trees.

He may have immigrated in 1880 but we know that Anna Charlotta came to the U.S. in 1882. For some reason they returned to Sweden and came back again in 1886. Their daughter, Astrid (Esther), was born in Sweden and celebrated her first birthday on the boat on the return to NY in July of 1886. They lived in Troy NY until 1891 or so and then moved to Little Falls, Minnesota. Alfred died in 1900 and left Anna with 8 kids; the oldest being 18. The youngest child was born after Alfred died, in June of 1900. She died when she was about 3. Her name was Olive.

Birth:
Raglanda, Amneharad

Alfred married Anna Charlotta LIND on 22 Jul 1884 in New York, New York. Anna (daughter of Lars Peter LIND and Carolina OLOFSDOTTER) was born on 22 Apr 1861 in Hova, Västergötland, Skaraborgs län, Sweden; was christened on 23 Apr 1861 in Hova, Västergötland, Skaraborgs län, Sweden; died on 17 Feb 1948 in Sioux City, Woodbury County, Iowa.

She is not the Anna Anderson who died in Morrison County on 24 Oct 1944 (1944-MN-008505).

Jan Johansson says that Emibas has her getting permission to leave Sweden (from Gustafsberg, Värmdö, Stockholms län (Uppland)) on 26 April 1882 and actually leaving the country for New York on 12 May 1882. She is shown as unmarried. She and her two daughters, Anna and Astrid, left Sweden the second time on 25 June 1886. The embarkation point was Göteborg both times.

In the 1905 state census, she and her family lived in Pike Creek Twp next to Sophia Peterson and her two children. Still living at home with Anna was Esther, 20, a domestic. The remainder of the children must have been listed on the back of the page, on a page that is missing, or were otherwise unrecorded.

The 1900 census reports that she had borne 8 children, all 8 still living. The 1910 census said only 7 still living. Harry, Herman, and Ethel were listed at home in 1910.

She was living in Minneapolis with her daughter Anna and Anna’s husband, as well as her daughter Ethel, at the time of the 1920 census.

Anna is living in Pike Creek Twp, Morrison County, in the 1930 census. Her widowed daughter Anna McCollem is living with her. Neither woman has an occupation.
