I can't really tell if you're kin or not. But with your name (the same as my great-uncle from Wisconsin/Minnesota) and that you're asking about a Thoreson, the same name as his mother, Hilma/Helma Christina (Thorson) Jacobson married to Ole Jacobson is conincidental. I know she would have been Jacobsdatter in the old naming ways, but this family is my dead end, and I'm grasping at straws wherever I can find them. Any such luck? Has your research come across any mention of Lac du Flambeau, Vilas County, Wisconsin and the Jacobson's there? Around the late 1890's, early 1900's.
Good luck on your search.
