This information about Johanna comes from two histories about his son Lars.

Jens and Johanna lived in Johanna's parents' home from the time they were married.  Johanna was crippled with rheumatism from the time her children were small until her death.  She had a loom and was able to do some weaving and did the work in the house until Anna Dorthea was big enough to help her.  After Johanna's father, Johan Gotlieb Wilhelm Hansen, died in 1871, Jens took posession of the house.  In 1874 they sold the house and emmigrated to Utah with Johanna and their four children.  They left Copenhagen on 16 June 1874 and sailed to London.  They were on the ship "Idaho" to New York, then took the train to Chicago and on to Ogden.  They travelled by ox team to Hyrum, Utah.  The family stayed with Jens' younger brother, Peder, in Hyrum until 1876 when they bought 4 city lots in the southeast part of Hyrum and built a house.  When Jens and Johanna were endowed and sealed in the Logan Temple in 1884, their two sons Hans and Lars carried Johanna on a chair through the temple
