Anders Johan JENSEN, Petrea Jensine SORENSEN

jecraig2006 — 7 Sep 2008 9:48:54 GMT

I have Elena Nielsine Jensen, born May 8, 1911, Salmonhurst, Victoria Co., New Brunswick, Canada (New Denmark). Her father Anders Johan Jensen, mother Petrea Jensine Sorensen.
She moved to Maine January 8th 1930 (contact person Sister Mrs. Aron Nielsen) and later married my uncle, William Edgar Craig from NB, Canada.
It would be good to have some info about her parents who look to have emigrated from Denmark and about her sister.

Where do I start? Any help gratefully received.

Thanks,

James.

James Jensen (1.17.1878-8.8.60) married Carrie Pedersen

chris_wogaman — 26 Aug 2008 12:50:22 GMT

Hi,

This is a long shot, given how few descendants he had. There were two sons, Irving James and Juston Loyd (just that spelling, though it is mis-spelled Justen and Justin at times--his nickname was Jess); Irving (Married Doris Mae Ostrander 12.31.40) had my mom, Sandra Lee (3.8.44) and uncle James Marshall (5.27.48). There's 4 great-grandchildren on Irving's side.

On Juston's side, he adopted one son, Donald, who was the child of Juston's wife Barbara Helen Schneider Jensen. Donald had 2 children by 1960 when James died, Donald married a woman by the name of Rose Mae or May, and they were living in Brooklyn Center, MN, in 1982, when Barbara died.

I have no clue what happened to them, or whether this James Jensen had any siblings. This family is a total mystery to me. Anyone know anything?

Many thanks!

vsholinsmallwood — 25 Jan 2008 11:44:24 GMT

Looking for descendants of the following family:

The family of Jens Peter JENSEN, a.k.a. Jens Peter CHRISTIANSEN, and his wife, Carrie, born Karen RASMUSDATTER immigrated in various years between 1875 and 1882 to Eureka, Humboldt, CA from Denmark. Jens was born 29 Feb 1820 and his wife was born 20 Feb 1823. They had a large family. Some of the dates may vary a few years depending on the sources.

The first to come to America seems to have been their son, Rasmus JENSEN, b. 17 Aug 1852, followed by his brother, Jens Christian JENSEN, a.k.a. Christian JENSEN, b. 15 Sep 1856. They lived at Yager Creek in Humboldt County, where Rasmus had a sheep ranch, and where Christian lived and helped with the ranch.

Rasmus' wife also lived there. Her name was Emma Emilie JOHN, b. 11 Mar 1850 in Denmark. They married 19 Apr 1876 in Eureka, Humboldt, CA

Christian m. Laura S. SCHEIE (possibly SCHWEIE) on 14 Feb 1885 in Eureka.

Rasmus' sister, Marie (Mary) Kristine JENSEN, b. 6 July 1861, came to America in 1882 with her mother, Carrie. Mary m. about 1884 Frank JOHNSON (b. Jan 1847 in Denmark).

Rasmus' sister, Christiana (Christine) JENSEN, b. 21 Apr 1864, immigrated in 1882, possibly with her sister, Mary, and mother, Carrie. She m. Frederick NELSON 29 Apr 1883 in Eureka. He was b. Oct 1849 in Denmark.

Their father, Jens Peter JENSEN, a.k.a. Jens Peter CHRISTIANSEN, also came to America. He d. 11 Nov 1898 in Eureka. His wife, Carrie, d. 20 Apr 1908 in Eureka.

Rasmus' family with Emma Emelie JOHN consisted of the following:

Charles Robert JENSEN, b. 1877; d. 1877
Alfred Jens Peter JENSEN, b. 1878; d. 1954
Nellie Emelie JENSEN, b. 1880; d. 1950
George Charles JENSEN, b. 1882; d. 1956
John Edward JENSEN, b. 1884; d. after 1943

Christian's family with Laura S. SCHEIE:

Mabel JENSEN, b. 1885
Howard Christian JENSEN, b. 1886; d. 1957
Frederick JENSEN, b. 1889
Norman JENSEN, b. 1893; d. 1984

Mary's family with Frank JOHNSON:

Frederick Otto JOHNSON, b. 1884; d. 1959
William Edgar JOHNSON, b. 1887; d. 1960
Guy JOHNSON, b. 1894; d. 1948
unknown JOHNSON; d. bef. June 1900

Christine's family with Fred NELSON:

Ella NELSON, b. 1885; d. bef. 1910
Carrie Lillian NELSON, b. 1887; d. 1966
Louis Frederick NELSON, b. 1888; d. bef. July 1955
Millie Margaret L. NELSON, b. 1891; d. bef. Jul 1955
Frederick J. NELSON, b. 1893
Raymond Melvin NELSON, b. 1897; d. 1968
Evelyn Adelle NELSON, b. 1906; d. 1979

Some of the data above may be wrong. It is based on records I've found so far. I have a lot more on this family, however, going back into Denmark. I also have photos I'm willing to share. My hope is that descendants of a JENSEN line other than mine will have information, documents, and/ or photos to share.

Christine Jensen and Jorgen Madsen family, Jorgen immigrated from Denmark 1892

wudinich — 19 Oct 2007 3:10:26 GMT

My grandfather, Francis Matson's biological parents were Jorgen Madson and Christine Jensen. Jorgen immigrated from Denmark in 1892. He applied for naturalization in Hutchinson, MN in 1896. He married Christine abt 1897 and they lived in Hutchinson until abt 1906, then moved to Iron River, Bayfield county, Wisconsin. They had eight children, all boys. Christine died in 1914, after giving birth to a son, who also died.
Christine was born abt 1878 and immigrated abt 1884. According to the 1900 census, her father's name was SC (Soren)Jensen, born abt 1835. He was a widow. He died 28 May 1923 in Richland county, Montana. She also had brothers Torvel and Lager and sisters Anna Betker and Mrs. A.G. Betker.
After Christine died, the children were all adopted out. Francis was adopted by Tony Madsen and his wife Mary Jensen, who, I believe lived in Rice county, MN. It would be obvious that either Jorgen or Christine would be related to one of them, but I haven't been able to make a connection. I do not know what happened to the other children or to Jorgen. I would like to hear from anyone who knows anything about this family. Thank you.

Our great uncle Jens Peder Jensen was a son of Jens Andersen of Viborg, Fjends, Risen, born April 25, 1847. He and his family came to the U.S in 1878 and are in the 1880 census for Utah, Juab, Nephi with given-name changes. Jens Peder, 33, became J. P Jensen, his wife Kirstine Marie Nielsen Jensen, 31, became Catherina, son Jørgen Peder, 9, became Peter, daughter Hedvig Kirstine, 7, became Christine, daughter Wilhelmine, 5, became Wilhelmina, Marie, 3, stayed Marie, and Nicolenea, 1, was born in Utah in 1879. These are their new names and ages as listed in the 1880 Utah census. We can't seem to find them in any 1900 census.

If anyone has any information on these Jensens, we would love to hear from you.

She was born Mary Sophia Yenson in 1868 but the last i can find of her is in 1881 when she is referred to as Sophia Jensen aged 13. After that i can't find her. I was wondering if anyone should come across her in the records if they could possibly let me know as she is the only person of that generation i haven't traced.

META KOSSOW - ALFRED JENSEN - Marshall Co. area, Kansas, 1870-1930

djv52 — 28 Sep 2006 8:10:29 GMT

I am trying to find information about the Kossow family who lived in Marshall County area in Kansas around the 1870 through at least 1930's. I know they are connected to my great great grandmother, Christina Kossow Brandt from Freeport, Illinois. Through pictures and old newspaper clippings, I believe I may have figured out the lineage, but need verification.

I think Christine's brother was William (Wilhelm) Kossow, married to Sophia Sievert. Their children were Ernest (wife, Rose), Anna (not married), Meatha (husband, Alfred Jensen), William (wife, Lula Belle Highfield) , Henry (wife, Emma Zimmerling).

Lars Fredrich Jensen born 1853 Denmark, lived Missouri 1880, possibly died Minnesota

rjohnson881 — 27 Sep 2006 11:44:33 GMT

Looking for death and burial info for Lars Fredrich JENSEN. He was born 21 Sep 1853 in Bække, Ribe, Denmark. He was born the son of Jens LARSEN and Maren NIELSDATTER.

Lars Fredrich JENSEN immigrated to the US in 1880 with his wife Marie Christine MATTHIESSEN (MADISON) and their 3 children they had at the time. The family changed their name to JOHNSON after arriving here and went to Audrain and Monroe Counties, Missouri to settle. Lars' wife Marie died in 1888 and Lars left their 7 children with family and friends and supposedly went to Minnesota.

Lars had a sister in Minnesota - Line Frederikke "Lina" HAMANN nee JENSEN. It is not known if the other 5 siblings of Lars and Lina immigrated to the United States.

Thanks,
Rhonda Johnson

Andrew Jensen, born Denmark 1844

lorijbk — 3 Sep 2006 8:51:02 GMT

I am looking for information on my great-grandfather Andrew Jensen. He came to the US in 1876 and later moved to Dakota Territory. I am particularly interested in who his parents were, whether he had brothers or sisters, and the extended family in Denmark, and how to find that information.

His obituary from 1918 states: "Andrew Jensen was born in Denmark on the 22nd day of February 1844. At the age of 17 he united with the Baptist Church in Frederickshaven. In 1876 he came to this country and was married the next year to Caroline Andersen. This marriage was of short duration as she died in 1881. In 1882 he was married to Inger Marie Christensen of Racine, Wisconsin. Six months later they moved to Dakota Territory and located in Daneville, Turner County."

Note: Inger Marie Christensen was born in Denmark in 1860 and had come to the US in 1882. I don't know if she and Andrew had known each other in Denmark.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Rasmus Jensen b-1882 Denmark d-1957 Robbinsdale, MN

Patti Barnett — 8 Nov 2002 4:42:02 GMT

Well, thanks to a relative, we have found the long lost great uncle. I will forever save those little cards you get at funerals! If not for one of those little cards I would still be looking. His name is Rasmus Marius Jensen, born 6-1-1882, and died on 11-4-1957. He had a brother named Jens, and a sister Marie. The funeral card says that the sister was in Denmark, and only that he had a brother. Now I need more information, the card said he had 2 sons, James and Roy. There is no mention of a wife. If anyone knows more please let me know, or if you are related there is quite a story here, I would love to share it with you. He lived in Robbinsdale, and probably moved there sometime after about 1896 when he came to America. That is only a guess. Let me know if you are related to Jensens in the area, or maybe I will have to start sending out some letters. Thanks for your help... Patti
