In 1880, Johan went to America and settled in Franklin County, Iowa. He took on carpentry work to earn money to pay for his families' passage to America. In 1881, he had earned enough money to bring his wife Guri and their six children to Iowa. They lived on a farm near Popejoy, in Oakland Township, Franklin County, Iowa. On this farm their next four daughters were born, they were Julia (Allie), Tilda or Tillie (Louise), Mena (Minnie), and Gurina (Josephyn or Josephine). In 1887, the family changed their last name from Holen to Holland. In America Guri went by the name Julia or Gertrude Holland.
