Here are the Nilson's/Nilsen's in TREMPEALEAU County of Wisconsin in 1900. Which would be his uncle? I can check for him in 1920.

Hei! Jeg har nå sjekket Ellis Island- Manifestet - og jeg synes heller det ser ut som hr. Kalfos skulle til sin onkel
Bernt K. Lindberg, i Trempeleau.

Uncle Otto Nilson bodde i Mc. Ville, Nilson, ND.

Margit - can you take another look at the manifest - the two first lines - those men were citizens... and the next one was mr. Kalfos, right?

So I think Bernt K. LIndberg is Oles uncle?

Hi Laila,
Yes you are right, he is the correct uncle. I will check in that area of ND. ND has some good databases here:
http://www.lib.ndsu.nodak.edu/ndirs/bio ... index.html
plus all counties have census records online free.
Thanks,
Margit

Sorry, I should have said check WI for Lindberg in other census.
