He was a day laborer, his wife was a laundress. Their daughter Belle was a domestic. He and his wife seem to have separated and lived apart after about 1920. In the 1930 census, he seems to be the John A Selthun living as a boarder on the widow Ingborg Svien’s farm in Dennison, Goodhue County. That Ingeborg Svien is in Find A Grave as Ingeborg Selthun Svien, 1883-1974, buried in Vang Lutheran Church Cemetery. In May of 1933, he was John A. Selthun, living at Ebenezer Home for the Aged, 2545 Portland Avenue, Minneapolis. eeliason11’s Eliason/Brandon family tree seems to be produced by one of John’s descendants. It has him born in Wisconsin on 4 Apr 1858 and dying in Rice County on 9 Jan 1940.
