i found an old newspaper that showed a relative John HANS, AKA, John Hart, was visiting his brother and that he was from Madison, SD.

I'm trying to determine how long John Hans/Hart lived there in Madison and his wife's name and any children.

are there any other places or ways to verify residence in that area ? I have his 1900 and 1910 census. He was born about 1876 and primarily a cowboy and or ranch hand/laborer, but may have owned land.

Thanks
