NOTE: The entry under "date and cause of death" as 3-5 does not seem to be related to a death. A few other individuals, such as 11-7, 1-1, 4-1, 11-5, on the same page had similar entries that also do not appear to be related to death. The handwriting is different than the original entries, so perhaps the numbers in that column were some sort of numerical comment unrelated to the column itself. There was one death noted in that column for someone who died 3 December, cause apoplexy cordis.NOTE: The Ellis Island website gives the following information about the ship St Paul, includes a drawing of the ship:

[Transcription given below]
Henry Hansen. Responsibility coming to youth has a tendency to make life a serious problem, and to rob childhood of much of its joyousness and buoyancy. But it also has its compensations, for it develops those traits of character without which there is no strength nor stability, and prepares the youth for the realities which are sure to come in later life. To the conscientious boy, bereft of a father, there come many obligations to the widowed mother, and in meeting these each day, his thoughts naturally turn away from self until gradually thoughtfulness for others becomes a habit, and habit is transformed into character. This is exemplified in the life of Henry Hansen, one of the young farmers of Sharon township, conspicuous for his integrity as well as for his achievements, who was left fatherless when a child, and carried burdens heavy for such young shoulders.
Henry Hansen was born on July 27, 1871, son of Henry and Sophia Hansen, whose home was in Soro, Denmark. Henry Hansen was a native of Holbok. Limited in early facilities for education or vocational training, he was a laborer, and passed away at the age of twenty-seven, in 1875. The young wife did what she could for her two sons, but it was necessary for them to work at an age when she would have preferred to keep them in school. In 1889, she and her two sons came to the United States and made their home in Sharon township, in this county. Later, she was married to H P Petersen, of Soro, Denmark, who had been the husband of her sister.
When a lad of only twelve years, young Henry began farm work, and lived in Polk township, Shelby county, for thirteen years. By dint of industry, he was able to save enough to buy a tract of land consisting of eighty acres near Poplar. In 1907 he bought one hundred and sixty acres in Sharon township, known as the J J Jones place.
Henry Hansen was married on February 27, 1893, to Henrietta P Raun, daughter of Nels P and Restina Hansen, both of Horsens, Denmark. Coming to America in 1909, they lived in Council Bluffs, Iowa, where Mr Hansen died the following year, at the age of seventy-four. When in Denmark, he had been engaged in the manufacture of wooden pumps. Their children, nine in number, were as follows: Hansena P married A S Jensen, of Omaha, Nebraska; Maria married Chris Petersen, of Council Bluffs; Henrietta (Mrs Hansen); Petres married A P Hansen, of Omaha; Metta married Hans Sorensen, of Omaha; Peter, a carpenter of the same city; Elise married C P Christiansen, of Omaha; Arnine married Loren Christiansen, also of Omaha; Christiana, who died at the age of eight years.
In the spring of 1914 Mr and Mrs Hansen began the erection of their new fifteen-room home, the dimensions of which are thirty by thirty-two feet, and eighteen feet high. It has hot and cold water, furnace heat and electric light. His large barn also is lighted with electricity. Among the improvements is a model hog house built in 1910, twenty-two by forty feet constructed of cement, and having running water. In order to equip his farm the better, both as a home and as a means of making a livelihood, Mr Hansen has spent several thousands of dollars, and has invested it in such a way as to bring the best returns. He raises draft horses and Poland China hogs.
Mr and Mrs Hansen are the parents of nine children, namely: Thora, married Morten Ipsen, a farmer of Sharon township; Hilda, Alma, Thorvald, Magnus, Hertha, Emanuel, Halger and Arthur.
The community in which he lives has shown its confidence in, and regard for, Mr Hansen by electing him a school director, a trustee and road supervisor. He has taken an active interest in politics, being a member of the Republican party. He and his wife have been for many years affiliated with the Lutheran church at Kimballton.
Mr and Mrs Hansen have given attention to the rearing and education of their children, and have kept well informed concerning the events which occupy the world's thoughts. Nor have they forgotten the needs of their own community, being liberal with both their time and means in matters that concerned the general good. Compared with the strenuous lives of city dwellers, theirs have been quiet and unobtrusive, but in actual worth and in the good accomplished, they have been equally as valuable.
NOTE: The daughter of Nels P and Restina Hansen listed above as "Arnine married Loren Christiansen" is meant to be Anine who married Lauritz Christensen.
NOTE: According to information on the internet, Soro is a county in Denmark. According to information on the internet, Holbok should probably be spelled Holbaek (and possibly other spellings) and it could be a city or county in Denmark.

CENSUS:
Denmark - His emigration record states his family was last living in Pedersborg or Petersborg, Soro County, Denmark. Census records online only go up to 1850 for Pedersborg sogn, Alsted herred, Sorø amt. The website is the Dansk Demografisk Database: Internet website: < http://ddd.dda.dk/kiplink_en.htm >. More information is needed about him.
NOTE: Census records indicate immigration as:
1900 - Henry 1886, Henrietta 1887
1910 - Henry 1886, Henrietta 1887
1920 - Henry 1886, Henrietta 1887
1930 - Henry 1886, Henrietta 18871870 - Denmark. Searched for Henry's family, before his birth, in the Dansk Demografisk Database, but they were not found, looking for a father Henry Hansen, mother Sophie, and son Peter or Peder Hansen in Soro or Holbaek or Vejle counties. More information is needed about where they lived and also all areas may not yet be indexed online. The website is: < http://ddd.sa.dk/kiplink_en.htm >.
1880 - Denmark. Searched for Henry's family, after he was born, in the Dansk Demografisk Database, but they were not found, looking for a mother Sophie with any last name, and a son Peter or Peder Hansen and another son named Henry or Henrik Hansen, looked in Soro and Holbaek and Vejle counties. Soro is the only county that had entries for "Soro, Alsted, Pedersborg," but there were no indexes for that area in 1880. The website is: < http://ddd.sa.dk/kiplink_en.htm >.
1895 - Searched the 1895 Iowa State Census database at Ancestry.com for Henry, wife, and first child, but they were not found. Also searched for Henry's mother as Sophie Hansen and Sophie Petersen, but she was not found. Also searched for Henry's brother, Peter Hansen, where a few possibilities were possible, but not in cities or counties expected, such as Audubon, Shelby or Pottawattamie. Audubon Co, Iowa, does not appear to be a part of this online index.

NOTE: Her year of birth is underlined in the record, probably because it was unusual to have someone born in 1869 being baptized in 1872, other baptisms on the page were for children born in 1872. She was apparently baptized the same day as her sister Mette.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------NOTE: The record below seems to be for the same Peter Raun, arriving again from Denmark back to the United States on 2 June 1906, after having arrived in the US previously on 13 May 1906. This seems almost impossible as far as being able to return to Denmark, turn around and return to America in that short period of time. However, the records seem to indicate this is the same person and that, in fact, he did make these two trips.
