Norwegians in the 1865 Minnesota State Census, Havana and Aurora Townships, Steele County, Minnesota



Norwegians in the 1865 Minnesota State Census
Havana and Aurora Townships, Steele County, Minnesota

     This abstract includes all persons living in Havana or Aurora Township who were born in Norway, or whose parent or parents were born in Norway, along with their spouses and children. The list does not include any member of a household who does not fit the above criteria. Generally this would be non-Norwegian servants, farm hands, boarders, etc. In some cases, a Norwegian servant may be listed and the rest of the household excluded. This census did not ask for the responder's nationality, so I have supplied birthplaces where I know them, and included a separate section for people with Scandinavian-sounding names whose nationality I do not know. The letters D and A in the family number I have added to designate, respectively, Havana (then known as Dover) and Aurora townships.
