Read More	Thought to be buried with Randi From 1859 Vestre Toten, Oppland, Norway Lutheran Church baptismal records, Hans parents are Johannes Evenson and Johanne Maria Christiansdatter. Hans Johannesen "Johnson" adopted the surname "Rude" after his 1883 marriage, apparently from his father. A May 8, 1880 record from the same church states that "Hans Johannesen" had departed for North America. Hans, about age 21, probably arrived in the United States in the late summer of 1880, thereby missing the 1880 U.S. Census by a few months. He made his way to Iowa, and was living in Winneshiek County by March of 1883. While living in Iowa, Hans is documented in only two or perhaps three official sources. The first is his marriage record to Randi Nesset in 1883. The groom is shown as "Hans Johnson," with parents "John Ruud" and "Johanna M. Christians." He signed his name "Hans Johannesen." The second source documenting Hans' life is the 1885 Iowa Census. It shows "Hans Johnson," a farm laborer, still in Glenwood Township, with wife Randi, sons Hans (3) and Julius (1). And the last probable source is a 1889 to 1891 naturalization record for "Hans J. Rude" from Polk County, Iowa (Des Moines, the state capital, is located there). This is likely our Hans. Hans and Randi stayed in Glenwood Township near her family. They had four more children in the next ten years- two daughters and two sons. The youngest, Henrietta, was born in 1893 but died before 1900. No further record has been found for Hans. He apparently died between 1892 and 1894. Contributor: Dennis Nicks (48332432)
