It appears that Sven, Ole and Gustav are brothers. They are from Næsheim farm in Stjernero, Rogaland, Norway.
The father is Ole Andersen Næsheim and the mother is Johanne Pauline Bjornsdatter Vestbo. Ole was born in 1841 in Fister and Johanne was born in 1856 in Finnoy. Some of their children are:
Inger Marie Olsdatter born 1885; Ole Johan Olsen Nesheim born 1887 moved to Wright County, Iowa; Gustav Olaus Olsen Nesheim born 1889; Jaenny Magrete Olsdatter born 1891 (immigrated to USA 22 Oct 1925 per Ellis Island database); Eli Stefana Olsdatter born 1894; Sven Johan Olsen Nesheim born 1896 who moved to Eagle Grove, Iowa; Nora Gunhuild Olsdatter born 1898;
Source: 1900 Norwegian census for Stjernero, Rogaland, Norway; Minnesota Death for Gustav Nesheim (mother's maiden name is listed as Vestbo);
