Hello! Fantastic website of my family lineage. I am a 6th generation Larson/Hanson – from Mari, sister of Ole Larson. I was happy to stumble across an electronic copy of the book Larson’s & Sletten’s I had been given a paper copy years ago by my father, Gerald Henry (5th) generation.
I have a question I was hoping someone could answer. So I see that Mari, Marit and Ole all emigrated to Vernon Co., WI and I see reflected that Anne Larsdatter also died there, does anyone know why Lars Paulson did not emigrate?

Lars Paulsen (alt. Paulson) died in Norway, ten years before Ole, Mari, Marit, and Anne came to America. Of my father’s eight great-grandparents, only Lars didn’t make it “across the pond.”
