Hi, I made a book about the decendents of Christen Larsen and Ane Margethe Nielsdatter. My grandfather, Vilhem,(William) came from Denmark in 1890. He was a son to Else. The story I have heard is his sister, Christine, was given a ticket to America by Lars Peter William came to her home.
I have been trying to find the first papers and naturaliztion paper, date and place for Lars Peter. I did not find them in Green Co. IA. Do you know about them? email me at mbettis(a)asde.net

If you haven't already, you may want to contact the Nebraska Vital Records Department to request a copy of your ancestor's Death Certificate. This may list who his parents were. You may also want to find out which parish covered the Karenhound region of Denmark and check the birth records. Danish church records offer a wealth of information (births, vaccinations, confirmations, marriages, deaths) and will probably springboard a variety of different research avenues for you. Feel free to contact me if you have questions.

Unfortunately I can't say that I recognize those names. If Paul and/or Jessena were born in Denmark, Norway or Sweden, which Christina was, there are on-line church records which you can search to find out who their parents were. You will need to know what area they were born in so that yous search the appropriate parish records. The census records may narrow your search parameters a bit and make it easier to correct parish. You will find that often times the last name changed generation to generation. The child would take the first name of the father as his or her last name (the son of Anders would be Andersen, the daughter would be Andersdatter). In my case, Ole Christensen was the son of Christen, but I have yet to identify who he is. Hope this helps...
