Notes
a. Note:   Obituary of Louis Hansen, The Port Arthur News-Chronicle, May 15, 1929, page 16: "LOUIS HANSON - The death occurred at 1 o'clock this morning, in St. Joseph's general hospital, of Louis Hanson, 185 St. James street, who for the past eighteen years had been an employee of the Works Department of the Corporation of Port Arthur. Mr. Hanson suffered a stroke Sunday night, and was taken to the hospital. He was eighty-two years old. He is survived by his wife, who is seventy-seven years old, his son, C.W. Hanson, of Port Arthur, John Hanson, of Detroit, and his daughters (Mary) Mrs. Lindberg of Missouri; (Edna) Mrs. Smith of Park Falls, Wisconsin, and (Ruth) Mrs. Luxton of Detroit. Relatives have been notified, and it is expected the funeral will be held Friday afternoon from the chapel 21 North Court street."
  From HISTORY OF THE MINNESOTA VALLEY, North Star Publishing Company, Minneapolis, 1882, Brown County, Page 739: "Lars Hanson was born in Denmark in 1848. On coming to America in 1865, he made his home in Illinois for three years. Came to Sleepy Eye, Minnesota, in 1865 (1868?), and after farming five years, accepted the position of baggage master at the depot. On the 8th of May, 1876, he was appointed postmaster. Married Miss Mary A. Christenson in 1872. They have four living children".
  From HISTORY OF BROWN COUNTY MINNESOTA, Volume I, B.F. Bowen & Company, Inc., Indianapolis, Indiana, 1916, Past and Present Postoffices, Page 487: "PRAIRIEVILLE - George N. Dayton, postmaster, appointed April 10, 1871; J.D. Levi, April 22, 1872; changed to Sleepy Eye, September 19, 1872.
 SLEEPY EYE - James A. Lee, postmaster, appointed September 19, 1872; Thomas J. Murfin, March 3, 1873; Andrew W. Williamson, December 22, 1873; LARS HANSON, May 8, 1876; Hans Mo, May 29, 1882; Hans Mo, July 18, 1882; etc.". It appears from this that Lars Hanson probably moved from Sleepy Eye in the spring of 1882.
