I am looking for cousins thru my 2x great grandfathers branch.
He was born June 08, 1849, in Denmark. I know he had at least 4 sisters and he was
probably the only son, I have a photo of him at the age of abt. 11 yrs old along with 4
sisters. I only have the name of one, "Louanne." I have one photo of his mother,
but I do not know her name. it appears that he alone immigrated to America between 1870
and 1880. He is on the 1880 census as a boarder with the brown family. he is a ministry
student.
He married Mary Emily Talbert daughter of Eliza paddock and Milo Talbert on October 03,
1880, in Henry Co... Ind book CC6 page393.
Rasmus and Mary had 4 known children.
Lucille nelson who married Thomas Coffey (my great grandparents)
