My John is from Norway, born Aug of 1856, and added Ike as a last name sometime after immigrating. My John died in Deadwood, SD in 1907, if this sounds like you'rs I'd be glad to share info. I am having trouble going back to find him as a youngster as John Hanson as I don't know his parents names. i find him in 1880 in Volga SD as a boarder with a peter Bolgord family. So I am stuck with him as my end. With his wife I have more to go with though.
Thanks for emailing me, and good luck with your search
