9 Ingeman Poulsen and
Poul Kristian Poulsen emigrated in 1913 from Denmark to the United States. sailing from Liverpool, England, on 13 March 1913 on the ship Ivernia and arriving in Boston, Massachusetts, on 28 March 1913. They were traveling with another man Severine Jorgensen from Skinnerup per Osterild.
10 Ingeman was traveling in steerage, 20, single, a carpenter, Danish, his last permanent address was Hunstrup, Denmark, and his father was Christen Poulsen of Hov per Thisted. His final destination was Auburn, Massachusetts, and he had a ticket to get there, he had paid for the passage himself, he had $25 with him, he had not previously been in the United States, he was going to join his uncle S.L. Salmonsen (the husband of his aunt Nikoline Poulsen) at R.F.D., Auburn, Massachusetts, and he was born in Lonnerup, Denmark.
After arriving in Massachusetts in 1913, Poul and Ingeman apparently separated. Ingeman initially worked as a carpenter in Worcester, Massachusetts, where he is listed in the 1914 and 1915 City Directories at 152 Greenwood (the address of his uncle C.T. Salmonsen, the husband of his aunt Katrine Poulsen). Poul went to Iowa and is listed there in the 1915 Iowa State census. Poul's future brother-in-law Jens Brandi (who was to marry Mette Poulsen in 1916) had emigrated to Iowa in 1909, and Poul’s brother Lars emigrated to Iowa later in 1915, followed by his brother Kristoffer in 1916.
Ingeman Poulsen lived between 1914 and 1915 in 152 Greenwood, Worcester, Worcester County, Massachusetts, as a boarder.
11,12 He was a carpenter between 1914 and 1915.
11 In about 1916 Poul and Ingeman evidently returned to Denmark (we don't know whether they traveled together or separately) and then in 1917 came back to the United States together.
In 1917, Poul and Ingeman Poulsen traveled back to the United States from Denmark, departing Copenhagen on 19 April 1917 on the ship United States and arriving at New York (Ellis Island) on 4 May 1917. They were making their second Denmark to the United States voyage. Ingeborg Larsine Larsen, who Ingeman would marry on 23 December 1917 at Anita, Cass County, Iowa, was emigrating to the United States on the same ship. All three had final destinations of the C.T. and S.L. Salmonsen brothers (who were married to the Nikoline and Katrine Poulsen sisters) in Worcester, Massachusetts.
13 Ingeman was 23, single, a carpenter, Danish, his last permanent address was Saratoga, Iowa, his father was Christen Poulsen of Hov per Thisted, and he was a non-immigrant resident alien. His final destination was Millbury, Massachusetts, and he had a ticket to get there, he had paid for the passage himself, he had more than $50 with him, he had previously been in the United States from 1913 to 1916 at Saratoga, Iowa, he was going to join his uncle S.L. Salmonsen (the husband of his aunt Nikoline Poulsen) at Millbury, Massachusetts.
As noted above, Poul gave a permanent U. S. address of Worcester, Massachusetts and said that he had been there from 1913 to 1916, and Ingeman listed his U.S. address as Saratoga, Howard County, Iowa and said that he had been there from 1913 to 1916. This is rather confusing, because it was Poul who is listed in the 1915 Iowa State census and Ingeman who is listed in the 1914 and 15 Worcester City Directories, working as a carpenter. Perhaps it was a clerical error in the passenger list? In 1917, Poul would register for the WWI draft in Iowa, and Ingeman would register in Worcester, Massachusetts. I don’t understand these apparent discrepancies.
Ingeman Paulsen registered for the draft for World War I on 5 June 1917, while living at 35 Tateran Street, Worcester, Worcester County, Massachusetts, reporting he was employed by Christian Nelson as a carpenter on Greendale Avenue. He was 24 years old, born in Thisted, Denmark, on 24 February 1893, an alien, single with no dependents and did not claim an exception from the draft.
14 After registering for the WWI draft, Ingeman Poulsen apparently left Worcester, Massachusetts, and traveled to Iowa because he married Ingeborg Larsine Larsen on 23 December 1917 at Anita, Cass County, Iowa. Anita is near Guthrie County where Mette and Jens Brandi were living, but half-way across Iowa from Howard Country where Poul and Lars were living and where Ingeman would next be found. He was a farmer in 1917.
15 Ingeman Paulsen and
Ingeborg Paulsen appeared on the census of 1920 in Saratoga, Howard County, Iowa, which lists Ingeman Paulson, 26, born in Denmark, emigrated in 1913; and his wife Ingeborg, 20, born in Denmark, emigrated in 1917.
16 He was a farmer, renting his farm in 1920.
17 He witnessed the birth of
Mary Elizabeth Poulsen on 28 July 1923 in Saratoga, Howard County, Iowa.
18 Ingeman Paulsen and Ingeborg Paulsen appeared on the census of 1 January 1925 in Oak Dale Township, Howard County, Iowa,

ngeman Paulsen Male 31 Married 1894 Head 23
Ingeborg Paulsen Female 26 Married 1899 Wife 24
Mary Paulsen Female 1 Single 1924 Daughter 25.
19 He witnessed the baptism of Mary Elizabeth Poulsen on 29 January 1926 in Calvery Luthern Church, Worcester, Worcester County, Massachusetts.
20 So the family must have moved in 1925 from Lime Springs, Iowa, to Worcester, Massachusetts.
On 31 December 1926, Ingeman, Ingeborg and their daughter Mary were "removed & dismissed" from the membership list of Calvary Lutheran Church in Worcester, Massachusetts. No reason was given, but it may have been because they were going, or had already gone, back to Denmark. .
21 He lived in 1927 in 19 Fairbanks, Worcester, Worcester County, Massachusetts, but his wife Ingeborg is not included. It is possible that she had taken Mary back to Denmark. In any event, the family had probably all emigrated back to Denmark sometime around 1928 because their daughter Edith was born in Denmark on 1 April 1929.
22 He was a carpenter in 1927.
22 Ingeman Poulsen and Ingeborg Larsine Larsen emigrated circa 1928 from the United States to back to Denmark because Ingeman is listed in the 1927 Worcester, Massachusetts, city directory and their daughter Edith was born in Denmark in 1929.
