Does anyone have knowledge of Mikkel Esbensen and Ane Marie Berg. The only thing I know is that their daughter, my great grandmother, Karen Marie ESBENSEN was christened on 12 November, 1865 in Norre Snede, Skanderborg, DENMARK.
She migrated on the Westland in 1883, leaving Plymouth, England on 11 August 1883 and arriving in Wellington, New Zealand on 31 October 1883. She was 18 at the time of migration.
She married my Danish great grandfather, Mads Christensen, in Halcombe, NZ on 28 May 1887. She signed her name as Carry Esbensen on the marriage certificate.
I am due to visit Denmark in March 2003 and would love information that can add to my visit. I will definitely go to Norre Snede to see the Church in which she was christened - it has a unique and famous font. Thank you everyone out there, Virginia Christensen
