This is Pat in Tucson (the one who didn't know where North Bend is).

Here is the 1910 census:

1910  >  CALIFORNIA  >  FRESNO  >  10-TWP 
Series: T624  Roll: 76  Page: 137   
Surname  GivenName  Age  Sex  Race  Birthplace  State  County  Location  Year 
PETERSEN  OLIF  55  M  W  DENM  CA  FRESNO  10-TWP  1910 
Petersen, Olif. Companion m w 55 Wd DenDanish DenDanish DenDenish imm 1873, Naturalized, speaks English,
Felling timber. 

It appears that "companion" means that the loggers shared a house and one was designated as "head of
household." It was probably pretty arbitrary.

You see that he is widowed and, according to this, at least, immigrated in 1873. 

I have tried to find Lottie and young Olaf to no avail.

And, can't find any of them on the 1900, 1910, 1920, and 1930 census. I realize it must be my spelling, or
poor, tired, brain, but maybe you can give us some other information.

(1) Where was Lottie born?  Do you know anything about her family? Could she have another name besides
"Lottie"?  

(2) Do you know anything about her parents? If she was dead by 1910, perhaps the children were being
raised by a sibling, or her parents.

Regards,

Pat (in Tucson)

Hi Penny,
Olof was born 1855 so it most not be him but maybe you could look further and also give me that mans wife
and daughters names.
Thank you so much.

I have access to 1900 Census from Genealogy.com.  There is an Olaf Peterson in the 5th Precinct, Clatsop
County, Oregon from Denmark born in 1863 and immigrated in 1877 at age 23.

He is with his wife and two daughters.

Hi again, Just wanted to be sure you got an answer.

Olof Peterson born 1855 Denmark was probably naturalized in Coos bay or big Bend, Oregon, do you know
anyone with an indexed 1900 Oregon Census.

Hi Erick,
I looked in Ancestry. They must not be finished with their enumeration of 
the 1900 census yet. I looked for Olof and Olaf, Peterson and Petersen. I 
could find no one born near 1885 from Denmark. I decided to look in Oregon 
when I found there was no Oregon or Washington (yet). Do you know where he 
was in 1900?

Here's what I found for immigration. All are from Ancestry.com
