Eiler (1Christian) Hansen of Travis Co TX
| s/o Christian Hansen & Andrea Petrea Neilsen h/o Alma Johnson - m. ~1907 |
Eiler Hansen was born 8/11/1886 in Travis Co TX. In about 1907, Eiler married Alma Jonsson b. 1881 in Safsjo, Jonkoping Lan, Sweden. And, Eiler and Alma are found in the 1910 and 1920 Williamson Co TX censuses.
By 1930 we find that the family had migrated south to the Rio Grande Valley, living in Willacy County. The older boys, sons Herbert and Arthur, were out of the house and are found to the west in Brooks County. Family stories inform that the family would travel many miles over poor roads so that Alma could attend church in the Swedish language in Raymondville. But, Alma died in 1930.
From the 1940 census, we learn that Eiler was back in central Texas, living in Williamson county. And in 1940, Eiler had moved back to Travis county where he died in 1961.
