She lived on the farm with her Grandmother Karen, and Karen's son, Ole Olson. After Ole was married in 1898, he and his wife adopted Anna. They all continued to live on the farm until 1901 when Ole built a house in Osseo. Ole, his wife, two children, Anna, and her grandmother all moved to town. Ole worked on the section for Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha RR. Anna lived with the family until 16 years when she went to live with her father in northern Minnesota near Grygla .

Hans married Alice OLSON STORLIE on 30 Oct 1888 in Eureka Township, Dakota, MN. Alice (daughter of Halvor OLSON STORLIE) was born on 1 Jul 1868 in NORWAY; died on 10 Nov 1925 in Farmington, Dakota, MN; was buried on 12 Nov 1925 in West Christiania Cemetery, New Market Township, Scott, MN. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events and Attributes:

• Immigratn: 1872

Notes:

Birth:
I believe that Sara Vagen is not the mother of Alice Olson Storlie. In the 1900 and 1910 census Halvor and Sara consistently give answers that place the date of their marriage at about 1873, 5 years after the birth of Alice. In both the 1900 and 1910 census Sara is listed as having borne 7 children, 6 of whom were living. Those numbers would not include Alice. On Alice's death certificate the spot for "maiden name of mother" is filled in with "not known," the informant is Hans Wahl, Alices' husband. On the death certificate of Anna Olson Storlie the name (although not maiden) name of Anna's mother is listed as Sara.
