Nelson Ancestry In Denmark?

There were many Nelsons who came from Denmark to Iowa.In Denmark, the name may well have been Nielson or Nielsen.My family is obviously not associated with yours, as my great-grandfather came with his family around the turn of the 20th century.They arrived at several different times, but most around 1901-1903.His name was Nels Nelson, at least after he passed through Ellis Island.My grandfather was age 10.His name was Iver William Nelson.
Good luck.It is so hard working on Denmark lineage, I have not done much.
