Hej Marie
Jeg er også oldebarn af Hans Christian. Min far Preben Fur lavede et stamtræ før hans død i 1993. Det starter ved vores tipoldefar Kresten Hansen født 11/12-1824.
Med venlig hilsen Lars Fur (Odense)

Hi,
I wish I could say that I'd found her for you, but while I did a little searching ( and had actually searched a bit last April when 'falsterden' was helping on your "Re: Minnie Christensen b.July 1876 Denmark" thread) I never found anything definitive to add. I do think that a connection to Hjorring Amt is likely. And there is a place in Ugilt parish called 'Kolborn' which might fit with Minnie's sometime surname of 'Culbrun'...maybe...
I looked through the records for several parishes in Hjorring Amt and only found one female birth on July 20 1876 and that one turned out to be Ane Margrethe Nielsen. (father was Christian Nielsen, mother Ane Larsen. She was born in Sindal, but baptized in Bindslev Kirke) And there were a few with names that could be abbreviated to 'Minnie', but none that were born on July 20th.
However - I only searched in a few parishes and there were probably close to 90 parishes in Hjorring Amt. If you are truly serious about finding her, you can try going though the records for each parish. (I'd look at the female births between 1875 and 1877 just in case the birth year is wrong - happens a lot - and also because sometimes there was a late entry.) Time consuming, but I really don't know what else to suggest.

My ggrandmother went by Minnie Christensen. She was born in 1876, and is buried in Coos County Oregon. She lived in Salt Lake area in Utah, then moved to California....and finally Oregon. She was very secretive about EVERYTHING! I am wondering if you have the downline from this family, and We believe Minnie was likely a nickname or term of endearment. She is our whole families brick wall.

My father, Aage Theodor Christensen (possibly Pederson when born) d/o/b 3/4/1921, was born in Denmark and left for the U.S. about 1941. He had sisters Ruth, Gerde, Else. His mother's first name was Johanna (we believe maiden name was Kristensen). He had a nephew Alan. My dad passed away in 2009 and we lost the book that he had all the addresses of his sisters in. If any of my dad's relatives read this, we'd like to get in contact with our cousins in Denmark.

Wowsa, well I am having trouble with the Danish census. I found the Tonder Amt with just the mom, dad and Sarah and Christian. But have searched for the 1860 census. I have also attempted the parish records with absolutely no luck! My email is kathymccall(a)cox.net. I would appreciate whatever you have, and I am forever grateful!!

And in Denmark/Schlesvig (Aabenraa and Tønder were in the area that changed hands between Germany and Denmark) census
Aabenraa, Lundtoft, Ensted, Hostrupskov, 11 F2 Hus, 64, FT-1860, C8166
Name: Age: Marital status: Position in household: Occupation: Birth place:
Anna Cecilia f. Jacobsen 41 Gift Husmoder, Daglejerske Rørkær

Peter Christian Christiansen 7 Ugift Hendes Børn Hostrupskov
Jens Christiansen 6 Ugift Hendes Børn Hostrupskov
Johanna Margretha Christiansen 4 Ugift Hendes Børn Hostrupskov
Hune (or 'Houni' in the Danish parish records) was living/working in another parish in 1860:
Aabenraa, Lundtoft, Kliplev, Søgaard Hovedgaard, , 120, FT-1860, C9228
Name: Age: Marital status: Position in household: Occupation: Birth place:
H.... Christensen 44 ugift Brænderibestyrer Vildbjerg,Ringkøbing amt
And in 1845. Here their names got a bit mangled during transcription, but I'm sure that this is them:
Tønder, Slogs, Hostrup, Dorf Hostrup, Kathengebäude, 27, FT-1845, C6060
Name: Age: Marital status: Position in household: Occupation: Birth place:
Hans Christensen 30 Verheir. Tagelöhner Jütland
Anna Cacorlie Jacobsen 26 Verheir. Seine Frau K. Hostrup
Sara Dorothea Christensen 3 Unverheir. Ihre Kinder K. Hostrup
Christen Wilh. Christensen 2 Unverheir. Ihre Kinder K. Hostrup
But most of what I posted before came from the parish records. I didn't save them all, but if you'd like me to send what I did save (some baptism records and their marriage record I think) just let me know where to email it.

(The Danish parish records are available online -free- the only catch being that you have to browse and that they are - of course! - handwritten in Danish)

I bought a wonderful photo album with many photos from Racine, Wisconsin. The only named photo is Bertha Margretha Christensen. There are about five of Bertha taken in Denmark. I also find her wedding photo taken in Racine, Wisconsin. The other photos in the album appear to be related families.
Many of the photos of Bertha are taken by Copenhagen photographers.
Every photo is numbered on the back, but there are no names. I have tried in vain to find Bertha.
Please contact me if you have an interest in this.
Sincerely,
Kathy Wieland
