- 1900 census at Marshfield, Wood, WI shows: Nels Eide, b. Mar 1870, age 30, married 7 years, b. NORWAY, parents b. NORWAY, carpenter, immigrated 1892, in country 8 years; Anna, b. Mar 1869, age 31, 2 children born / 2 living, b. NORWAY, parents b. NORWAY, immigrated 1892, in country 8 years; Nels B., b. Jun 1897, age 2, b. WI.
In the census Anna indicates 2 children are living, I find no evidence of another child living. In a later census she indicates that she had 6 children and 5 were living. I believe Anna and Nels had another child prior to Nels Benjamin, that died.
