Another sister of Even, Gunder and Johan, Johanne, married a local, Johannes Strangstad, and in 1872 emigrated to the US to settle in Vernon co., Wisconsin. In the meantime their younger nephew John Botterud, later to be found in Clark co. WI, had joined Gunder, Lisbeth and Johan at Vik. John was the oldest son of Haagen Johnson Botterud, the oldest brother to Gunder and Even. He had, customary at the time, inherited the farm Botterud from his parents Goro and John.
As John settled at Vik and got married, Gunder and his wife Barbro, in 1875, decided to follow his older brother Even and emigrated to the US in 1875. They settled in Clark co. where Even had acquired land in Mayville, later to be Hoard. Even had some 120 acres of land in section 26/27 while Gunder got adjacent 80 acres. In the meantime John Botterud got married to Karen Olsdatter from the neighbouring community of Ringebu. Marry did also his youngest uncle Johan, the tradesman. Johan went to the US in 1873 but came back. His last child borne in Norway was borne in 1876. Because of a really bad trade he did, he lost all his fortune and emigrated to work in the lumber business in Hinckley, MN. He and his family survived the great fire of Hinckley in 1894 and one of his daughters married a famous to be Norwegian-American poet Julius Berg Baumann, see Norwegian American History Association.
After 1880 and before 1883 John Botterud and Karen joined his uncles Even and Gunder in Clark co. He acquired 80 acres land next to his brothers in section 23 of Hoard township. Soon John's oldest sister-in-law, Anne Olsdatter Bergehagen from Ringebu, joined them. She then married Even Johnson, John Botterud's uncle. In the meantime several of their fellow acquaintances from Norway joined them in Curtiss. There were Thompson families, Bekken family, Borgemoen family and Lokken family, all from a radius of less than 10 miles from the Botterud farm. Some were even relatives, though not close.
Emigration: 14 Feb 1880
