The month after his wedding, on May 10, 1850, he, his wife, and his in-laws, having traveled to the coast from Vang, Norway, set sail from Bergen, Norway aboard the brig "Ørnen" (Eagle), whose captain was Nicolai Jahn. They landed in New York City on July 15, 1850. Upon arrival to the United States, the family traveled to Iowa where they bought government land in Springfield Township in Winnesheik County, near the site of Springfield Lutheran Church. When they arrived in Iowa, in September 1850, they did not have a chance to plant crops before winter. They built a dugout in a hillside, near a spring, in which to live through the winter. Using his axe, he cleared land for others who had come before, so he could earn a living until he could begin farming in the spring. (Their farm is still operated, by a fifth generation descendant- named Gary Allen Lien, as of 1994.) He died on Apr 12 1903 in Decorah, Iowa. Age at death: 88.
