In the 1900 census, he is Johannes Thronsen, b. Jun 1826, living in Utica Twp, Chickasaw County, Iowa, with his wife Synneva, b. Aug 1827. They have been married for 52 years and came to the U.S. in 1854. The census enumerator is Nels Swennumson so he should have been able to understand Johannes and Synneva.
