    Notes 
    • He may be the 28 year-old Martinius Johannessen of Herstad who moved from Nes to Ringsaker, Sauseie, on 28 December 1880. That Martinius was shown as unmarried, however, and there is no corresponding record for Anne Marie.



      All of the children were living with their widower father in Sevier County in the 1900 census. Martin’s birthplace is shown as Denmark. Martin is shown as coming to the U.S. in 1885 and all of the Norwegian-born children in 1886.

      In the 1910 census, in Richfield, he’s Martin Johnson, still shown as born in Denmark. His occupation is house carpenter. Of his first family, only May is still living with him and his second wife. He apparently has had three sons by the second wife: Evan, Leonard, and Monte. Also in the household are two step-sons, probably Eliza’s from an earlier marriage: Ferdinand and Carlos.

      According to his death certificate, the last two to three weeks of Martin’s life were complicated by uremia from retention due to an enlarged prostate.

      The informant for the information on his death certificate was Mrs. Ellen Gurr of Richfield.
