• Notes

  Jasper and Hans shipyard Two Danes, Jasper Hanson and Hans M. Scove, established a shipyard in Manitowoc and built a number of vessels in the period 1870-1889, but the carpenters and mechanics who were building these vessels were nearly all Norwegians. One of these was Julius Johnson, foreman and expert spar maker in the Hanson and Scove shipyard. He was a graduate of a navigation school in Norway, and after the panic of 1873 had created hard times for the shipbuilding industry, he was placed in command of the schooner "John Schuette," which he sailed for his employers, taking a cargo of deals from Manitowoc to England. He sailed the vessel back to Wilmington, North Carolina, where he left it, and then returned to Manitowoc. As told elsewhere Captain William Lund of Milwaukee went to Wilmington and took charge of the vessel after Captain Johnson?s return. After sailing it to Riga, Russia, and other places, he finally brought it back to Chicago in September, 1879. The vessel was built by Hanson and Scove at their shipyard at Two Rivers, Wisconsin, where they were located before 1873. Another Norwegian in the employ of Hanson and Scove was Captain Christen Olson, born at Grimstad, Norway, in 1830. He came to America in 1854, settling in Manitowoc, where he served as shipbuilder, and later as superintendent in the Hanson and Scove shipyard. He was part owner of the schooner "Industry" and of the scow "Success". He married Miss Maren Findahl, a sister of Mrs. O. Torrison of Manitowoc.
