** Some Family Trees on Ancestry record William Arthur Anderson born in Wisconsin
but this NOT likely correct - see below

[there is a record for Fred Anderson and wife in 1880 US Census at Cokato, Wright; and a record 1900 US Census for Cokato with son Wilhelm b Apr 1885, born in MN; age 15; and this record notes that Wilhelmina b Jul 1847 married for 25 yrs and the mother of 'no children']
BUT 1895 MN State Census, Wright (image 126 on ancestry)
Frederick Anderson age 46 and wife ...? then William Anderson age 10 b in Wis - this is the only record that says this
- it might be possible that he was was born in Wis and his parents moved to Minneapolis around this time and they died; or it might be that his parents were from Wis. but he was born in Minneapolis
