Debbie, Now you need to go to http://www.arkivalieronline.dk and get an account so you can download her birth record in the church books (kirkebxger). She was born in Lxsning on January 7, 1877. If I read it correctly, her parents where Jens Larsen of Lxsning Mark and her mother was Kirstine Sofie Marie Madsen who was 29 years old. Her father's occupation is listed as a Husmand. Once you get your account, select "Sxg i kirkebxger" twice. Then select Lxsning from the "Sogn" drop down list. Then select

7. Re: [DK] Kopenhagen [1]
So would a person have had to have a pasprotokol to go from Copenhagen to Maribo sometime between his birth in 1795 in Copenhagen, according to his death record, and his marriage in Vesterborg in 1818? About what time period did this pasprotokols exist?

10. Re: [DK] Was Grand Haven Michigan a port or just a destination ??? [1]
Well, let's see. The first vessel to transit the Welland Canal was a schooner in 1829. But this was a short version of the canal which emptied into the Niagara River with its swift currents. The full length canal was finished in 1833 and had a depth of 8 feet. A second canal with a depth of 9 feet was opened in 1848. The Third Welland Canal, partially opened in 1881, had 26 locks each 270 feet long and 45 feet wide. Not until 1887 was the depth of 14 feet available throughout its length. Niels

12. Re: [DK] Religion - RIck - German Danes ? [1]
Rich, I have not seen any signs of mass expulsion of the optants. I have encountered several public notices about individual expulsion for reasons of "irksomeness". The German formula was : " .... weil laestig gefallen ..." , meaning to express that the presence of a person had become undesirable, and that certainly for the reason that he had agitated all too pro-Danish, not to say anti-Prussian. If there still is any kind of documentation on all of those people who exercised their rights, I would not kno

14. RE: [DK] Currency in Denmark [1]
Hello Mike, The Kroners in Denmark are not the same as the Kroners in Sweden, in the same way that Dollars in USA are not the same as in Canada (etc). We brought about Dkk2000 with us when we were in Denmark (England, Germany) in August last year and mainly used that to supplement credit cards or ATMs. Visa and MasterCard are the most popular with a degree of acceptance of Amex. The charges at the ATM are moderate and if you pull out big amounts seem reasonable. Travellers cheques are acceptable but for

18. Re: [DK] Indexes [1]
Hej, Flemming, Thank you so much! I had looked in the 1801 census but did not spell Mikkelsen the right way to find it! Mikkel was 32 in 1823 when he was married. That fits with the 1801 census! I must have missed him when I was looking at the Xstofte Kirkebxger. Tusind tak! Hazel in Eagan, Minnesota
19. Re: [DK] Indexes [1]
Hi Hazel, I think it might be well worth your while having another look in the Xstofte churchbook. There are many variations in the spelling - c and ch was often used instead of k and I have seen a Mikkellsen as well, the only letters that you can be sure of is mi at the beginning and lsen at the end. No one has answered your question about indexes of deaths in Kxbenhavn. It is not a huge task to work through the churchbooks at Arkivalieronline, they are all available for Kxbenhavn in the period you are

22. Re: [DK] Pinse?? [1]
It is fifty days if Easter is counted as one; it is fortynine days if Easter is counted as zero. The people who established the notion that it was fifty days were using the system of Roman numerals (which has no zero).

23. RE: [DK] King Frederick VI [1]
It's Frederiksberg Slot. They wouldn't be able to walk back to Saxogade from Frederiksborg (situated in Hillerxd). As to the widower I was a bit confused at first I admit that. But I believe that you should read it as "hvor Frederik VI boede, (pause) lejede enkemand i Haven (pause) gik se tilbage til Saxogade". Where Frederik VI lived -- played enkemand i Haven (they did!)-- walked back to Saxogade. "Enkelxb" or "to mand frem for en enke" was a popular outdoor party game. Bxrge > -----Original Messag
