His brothers, Abraham and Gulbrand, with other pioneers came here in 1873 and held a claim for him in Grant Township, eight miles southeast of Lennox, on which he filed. Mrs. Fodness, nee Seneve Koorstad, spent her early years in Norway and later, with other family members joined the immigrant's enroute to America and subsequently settled here.
