Where to find Marriage Certificates for Chippewa 1909 ?

Legg inn av Kjell Halvorsen » 19 des 2008 12:45:02

John Johnson was newly wed (10/12 of year) at the time of Census 1910 (Enumerated 26th of April) at Montevideo ward 2, Chippewa County, Minnesota. He was then living on 3rd St with his wife Clara and daughter Claresse. Given that the above indication of length of marriage is correct, their marriage took place in the summer of 1909, most probably in Mandt township, Chippewa County.

In order to possibly verify/document the identity of John Johnson I would appreciate any help to point me in the right direction to obtain the marriage certificate of the couple.

The John Johnson I am looking for is Johan Johansen who was born at Nærsnes in Røyken, Buskerud on January 10th 1883. He emigrated from Norway 9 August 1901 and the Johan Johansen who arrived at Quebec 23 August onboard ss ‘Tunesian’ with final destination Montevideo, Minnesota, is most probably the same person. According to living relatives in Norway, John Johnson settled in Minnesota.

Laila: Jeg fulgte den linken du ga og fant en adresse jeg vil benytte for å be om en vielsesattest for John og Clara. Takk for tipset og God Jul :)

Margit: Thank you so much for the effort you have put into giving me different options in my continued search for Johan Johansen ! Even if the birth date of the John Johnson you have given me is a month off and same thing with date of immigration given – a year off, this is not at all unusual, is it ? So I will go forward and write a letter to Mr. Molden in Watson, Minn. and I will also definitely request the obituary of John E. Johnson that you pointed at !

In order to possibly find names of living descendants I have ordered the death certificate of Mr Milton Orander Johnson who passed away Sept 6th 1992.

John Johnson has stated in one of the censuses that he became a naturlized citizen in 1919. Does anyone happen to know where to get hold of any records of application for citizenship in the state of Minnesota ?

Thanks again and Merry Christmas to you too :!:

World War I Draft Registration Cards, 1917-1918

Name: John E Johnson
City: Not Stated
County: Chippewa
State: Minnesota
Birth Date: 10 Dec 1882
Race: White
Roll: 1675387
DraftBoard: 0

WWI reg.cards. bruker ha riktig dato på personer, så dette er ikke lovende for at det er din John Johnson.

-

Fant ikke noen John Johnson f 10 jan 1883 Norge i WWI reg.cards. Det var en i med rett dato i Minneapolis, men han var født i USA.

Takk for innspill, Hanne. Jeg registrerer utsagnet ditt om at WWI drafting cards vanligvis har korrekt fødselsdato.

Likelvel vil jeg vente litt med å forkaste John E Johnson som kandidat. Dette fordi jeg, etter å søkt i immigrasjonsbasen til Ancestry etter Joh* Joh* født i Norge 1883 +/- 1 år med immigrasjonsår 1900 +/- 1 år, har sjekket ut de fleste av disse mot emigrantprotokollene fra Norge og deretter søkt etter deres fødsel/dåp i kirkebøkene uten å finne at noen ble født 10 desember 1882.

Forhåpentlig vil jeg i nærmeste framtid få kontakt med levende etterkommere etter nevnte John Johnson som kanskje kan føre til en avklaring om hans opprinnelse.
