 1880 1880 US Census
(Swift County, MN)		 This single image contains the 1880 census records for three Teien households in Swift County, Minnesota. The heads of these households are Hans C Teien, Christen Teien, and Ole C. Teien. It is not clear if these family groups are related to the Kittson County Teien's, but Christen Teien has the same first name as Christiana C Teien Solibakke's father.
1900 1900 US Census (Teien Township, Kittson County, MN)

1900 US Census Record for George Teien, shows that George immigrated to USA in 1880, and was not a citizen in 1900. Other details from this census record are:

Teien, George, born in Norway, 1864
--- Annit, (?) wife, born in Sweden, 1866
---Clarence, Son, born in Minnesota, 1895
---William, Son, born in Minnesota, 1897
---Arthur, Son, born in Minnesota, 1899

Cross reference this with Norwegian-American Historical Associate , Volumne 21, Part II which references George and son Clarence, to see the relationship of this family group to Hilda Josephine Solibakke, a neice of George Teien.
