Marriage: Seming and Lina HOGANSON (26 Apr 1880)

Though difficult to find due to their surnames being listed as Horset and Hornset, Ancestry.com had a record for Seming and Lina's marriage in their Minnesota Marriages Index.

After leaving Norway on 12 Mar 1880 and traveling to America, they arrived in Jackson County, MN, and were married on 26 Apr. I have been unable to find any ship records as of yet.

Lina would have been about six months pregnant with their first child, who they would name Mina, my  great grandmother.
