Hello.
I would like to hear if there are any that might help me find the twin brothers Ole Olsen and Niels Olsen. :D
They were born on 19 / 12-1863 in Reerslev parish, Roskilde County
They traveled to New York on 4 / 2-1904 from Denmark and on to Seattle, Washington where one brother Ole had lived since 1888. Ole lived with another person Jens Andersen at the address 512 Maynard Ave, Seattle, Wash.
I would like to find out what happens to the brothers Olsen by 1904 and would like to hear if there are some who can help me. ;D
Sincerely
Rolf Georgi-Jensen

Hi Rolf
I think it must be Ole Olsen in the Canada Census 1911 :
https://familysearch.org/search/collection/results?count=20&query=%2Bgivenname%3AOle~%20%2Bsurname%3AOlsen%20%2Bbirth_place%3ADenmark~%20%2Bbirth_year%3A1863-1863~&collection_id=2143998
The age is right and the census also shows that he is born in December.
Best regards

Hello Søren.
How do you see Oles age and birth date, because when I click on it you sent come only his name forward.
???
Sincerely Rolf
Hello Rolf
I did not notice that the age was missing in the FamilySearch entry.
I had found it on Ancestry first.
Here is the result from Library and Archives Canada:
