Jorgen "George" Andersen (1853 - 1917)
George (Jorgen) Andersen was born in Saltum, Denmark. In the late 1800's, there was another George Anderso(e)n living on Washington Island, Wisconsin and it is assumed that this George Andersen used the last name of Saltum on the on the 1895 Census, his son Conrad’s birth in 1892, and daughter Christina’s marriage record in 1907 so as not to cause confusion between the two families. By the 1900 census he is back to using George (Jorgen) Andersen.
