——
He may be the same person as Johannes Olsen from Öier in Norway, who got a daughter with Karen Sophie Thorsdatter (Norderhov in Norway) in 1972, was not married at that point, and was a farmer who left for America at some point during 1872-1895. However, this was not confirmed by autosomal DNA match.
