Hi Laura:

Here is all I have on my JEPSEN names:

It is probable that Jep NISHEN was from Tønder County, and if so, there
should have been other JEPSENs produced from his marriage. Have you
checked the LDS films for Tønder? I hope that my Jep Nishen is from Brede,
where your Jepsens are, and that you can provide me with more info about
him.
