Hi, I'm Romana Machado. Karen (Keryen) Christensen Hamm (not Hammond) was my grandmother. I was tested by 23 and Me and so was my 2nd cousin, Steve Williams, whose grandmother is Olga Christensen MacDonald. It surprised me to find out that both of us are about 3% Ashkenazi Jew. Do you know the names of the mothers and fathers of Frederikke Martine Nielsen and Christian Hall Christensen? Are you sure of the spelling of "Fredericka Barbee"?

Dear EvilPurpleDragon,
This is your 3rd cousin Steve Page. Every two years we have a Christensen/Jensen Reunion in Stanwood Washington. A while back I was in contact with your Mom and your Uncle Steve. I lost contact over the years and have recently been trying to track them down again and found your post! This is the second message I sent, but I can't see where the first one shows as being sent. Would love to get in contact. My email is coachpage(a)aol.com

Dear EvilPurpleDragon,
This is your 3rd Cousin Steve Page. We have a Christensen/Jensen Family Reunion every two years in Stanwood, Washington and years ago I was in contact with your Mom and your Uncle Steve. Over the years I have lost contact with them and recently began trying to track them down again and came across your post!
Please email me at coachpage(a)aol.com (if you would like) and we can establish contact. I think a lot of your material may be based on some of my information enhanced by another cousin Adam Jensen.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Steve

Karen Marie Christensen Hamm is my grandmother. I'm in correspondence with Steve Williams who is a second cousin, his grandmother is Olga Christensen McDonald. Here's what he just said to my inquiry: They lived in Ålborg, Denmark, and our great-grandfather had a general store. Supposedly a lot of customers ran up their credit and didn't pay, so he went bankrupt which was shameful in Denmark so they emigrated. He went first with some of the kids, then sent for the mother and the rest of the kids a couple years later. Olga was in the second group in 1907. The mother's name was Frederikke Martine Christensen; I think the father's name was Christian Christensen, but I can't find that for sure at the moment. The kids who came in 1907 were Oscar, Niels, Olga, Karen, Hans, Anders, Meta (real name Edith). I'll have to ask my mom about the others. I know they lived near Santa Cruz. My mom showed me where it was once, on the road to Big Basin.
