Michael, There were a million (kidding) Anders Jensens in the USA so he like another million used a more distinct name in the USA ie Anders Jensen fra Haal (which then became Andrew Jensen Hall). This is his household in 1880 (in Haals)- note that he is from the second family. His father is Jens Nielsen http://ddd.dda.dk/asp/husstand_uk.asp?amt=Aalborg&herred=Fleskum&enhed=Gunderup&stednavn=&matr_nr_adresse=Et+Hus&matrikel=&kilde=FT-1880&indtastningsnr=C1706&husstands_familienr=Nr.26 And this is his fathers family in Haals village in 1840 - his father is Jens Nielsen http://ddd.dda.dk/asp/husstand_uk.asp?amt=Aalborg&herred=Fleskum&enhed=Gunderup&stednavn=Haals+Bye&matr_nr_adresse=et+Huus&matrikel=&kilde=FT-1840&indtastningsnr=B6946&husstands_familienr=45 Note the changing Patronym from Niels Jensen to Jens Nielsen to Anders Jensen (anders was the son of Jens and Jens was the son of Niels - that is how it changes and how you get -sen on the end of the name) I'm not sure who your GGGrandmother was but this family is prettywell dirt poor.

Hello All, thanks for helping me out with this information. We had little doubt that our Danish ancestors were very poor, which is why the two oldest boys left home as soon as they were old enough for Dell Rapids, South Dakota. However, they both came to America and became quite prosperous. My Great-grandfather owned four farms and a general store in a little Scandinavian settlement called Norge just outside of Williamsburg, Virginia. Had he stayed in Denmark, he would have probably ended up doing no better than his father and many other Danes during that period of time, which is why so many of them had to leave to find a better life. Here is some more info that maybe you could help me with: My Great-great grandfather, Lars Anton Jensen, was born in Lissoig, Denmark on January 13, 1852. (Not sure of the spelling?). Has anyone heard of this place??? He came to America in 1877 and met and married my Great-great grandmother Marie Nesby who was born in Vaast, Denmark on January 16, 1858. They lived in Iowa for a time, then moved to Nebraska, and finally to Dell Rapids, South Dakota. My Great-grandmother O'lena Jensen who later married Anders Jensen Hall was born on September 22, 1880 in Dell Rapids. She and my Great-grandfather met and fell in love in Dell Rapids, SD. However, because of failing health and the harsh mid-western winters, her father (my GG grandfather) sold out his farms and a store that he owned and moved to Virginia. The village of Norge, Virginia was established around 1900, or there about, as a Scandinavian settlement. Mostly Norwegians and Swedes settled there, along with a few Danish families, including mine. My Great grandfather Anders Jensen Hall missed O'lena Jensen so much that he sold out what holdings he had in Dell Rapids and moved to Virginia to be with her. They were married in Norge, Virginia and had a very happy life together. My father was raised by Anders and O'lena Hall but they spoke little about the old country, although they still wrote to relatives in Denmark. This is mainly why up until now we have had a hard time finding the Danish connection, that along with a misspelled place name and searching with the wrong surname. If you run across anything about Lars Anton Jensen or Marie Nesby I would appreciate it. Again, I would like to thank everyone who has responded and helped me with this endeavor to find my Danish ancestors. Col Jones, you may actually be right about the million Jensens, especially since both of my Great grandparents were Jensens.

But, alas - it is not so. One doesn't need to go back very far to find that you requested & received assistance here regarding a Kaj Kristensen in California, for example.

I wonder if you are aware that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints has a massive collection of Scandanavian records on microfilm & microfiche which they make available to the general public. Those of us who are researching our Scandanavian roots have also accumulated other resources either by personal research or by assistance from friends in Scandanavia.

I'm amazed to see just how many Americans, and others, offer their "help" in this newsgroup. As always the requests are in English and the answers must be in English as well, as most of those wanting help do not speak any of the Scandinavian languages! If only the same service could be provided when one asks questions in the predominantly English speaking newsgroups! But, alas - it is not so. True search in genealogy is based on facts - not fiction. This means looking at the sources, the old books, the registers, the church records etc. etc. How come that so many Americans, and others, far away from this part of the world have such an in depth knowledge of all these records? Have they been here? Or is it just based on available records - not checked or verified - that anyone can find on the internet? So, "Daughter of Scandinavia" - whoever you are - the attitudeproblem seems to be in your end. We don't need you you say, go away you say. I suppose you refer to me. Well, I was born here- what about you? Perhaps a more humble approach will get you a lot more positive replies - this is not the Marines, mind you!

Hei all, I guess I am thinking that we are all ADULTS here on this list and should ALL be above this behavior. I am soon ready to go off this list because of this banter between people that should be carried on offlist. I am here to help people with their genealogy, not to have people fight over what they think is right or wrong in postings. Night all from Minnesota. Margit

Hi is there anyone who have done research of the Jussila family in Kittilä, Finland? My GG-mother and her sister came from that city sometimes in yearly 1860's. Her name was Briita Kreeta Jussila, her sister was Mathilde Jussila. Their parents was Hans Michel Åstrøm Jussila and Britha Helena Kallo. TIA, Trond Ballo

Hello All, I am looking for any information on my Great-grandfather and his Danish family. His name was Andrew Jensen Hall and he was from Gunderup Sogn, which I know to mean parish. We were told that his surname was originally Haal and it was anglicized into Hall (not sure if that is true, although there is a village nearby Gunderup Sogn named Haals, which could be where the name comes from). He was born September 26, 1874 and left Denmark for America in 1891. He also had an older brother named James Hall. My Great-grandfather and his Danish ancestors/family should be listed in the Gunderup Sogn Kirke registry. Also, my Great-great-grandmother was supposedly the Florence Nightingale of Denmark and there is supposed to be a statue of her in Copenhagen that the Danish queen had erected in remembrance of her. I do not know her name, just the story.>Is there anyone that could help me find some information on my Great-grandfather or about my Great-great-grandmother? I would surely appreciate it. Unfortunately, I do not speak or read a bit of the Danish language. Thanks, Mike Hall California USA
