It would be helpful to responders to your message if the information you glean is repeated
in subsequent postings rather than simply being acknowledged. That being said, here is
the data amassed from my studies of ormsby Coutny and its residents.
Hans Marcus Andersen (b. 1839 Germany of Danish parents (probably Schleswig-Holstein, a
Danish Province invaded and annexed to Germany in 1864 by Otto von Bismark of Prussia); d.
1922; buried Lone Mountain Cemetery; a farmer in 1880&1920; husb of Christina; resided
Carson Valley, Douglas Co., NV before relocating to Ormsby County. Hans Marcus Andersen
immigrated from Denmark to Clinton Co., IA 1880. He then emigrated to Califoria but
settled in Ormsby County in 1897 and purchased a ranch from the Phillips estate at the
edge of Carson City at the base of Kings Canyon. His holdings remained in the family
until the property was sold for housing development. The original ranch house, a two
story, white, New England influenced archtype, may still be in existance on the original
site.
