Uncle Hans was born 18 Jun 1884 and came to America in March, 1907 on the ship Oscar II. He is on line 13. He is going to his brother Georg Jensen of Minneapolis. It says that he "squints a little in the right eye", otherwise his health is good! He is a farmer.
Hans P is listed in the 1920 census living with brother John and his wife Elsie and their children in Carlston, Freeborn County, Minnesota (near Alden). He is single and a farm laborer.
In about 1924 he married a woman named Lena L (maiden name?) and they had two children - Earl M in 1925 and Donna H in July 1929. They are listed in the 1930 census, where he is using the name Peter H Jensen and farming in Foster, Faribault County, Minnesota.
I find no record of a draft card.
I have not yet been able to determine when and where he died or where he is buried, nor have I been able to determine where Earl and Donna are, although I have some possible names for Earl's children.
