Jon.

It seems you have found the right Johan/John. I have him emigrated in 1883 though. And Pilchutt ,.....is that the same city as Port Madison?

Listers....

Is it anyone who can find Christian Jorgenson/Jorgensen ,born 1846 in 1900 or 1910? He lived in Centerville ,Snohomish County ,WA in 1880 and that`s the last census he`s registered in ,but he lived after 1900 too.
His address was Rt 1 ,East Stanwood ,WA... (I don`t know when that was though ,but it must have been after 1900.
He was married to Christine Fjeld ,born abt 1858 ,and they had 4 sons and 4 daughters. I know only name of one son:
1 Johan Jorgenson/Jorgensen ,born Feb 1880 in Washington.

If anyone knows anything ,please tell me.

Erik H
