I have the information that you previously sent on your Johannsen line, but am unable to make a connection. Just thought that maybe you found something in the Bergenhusen records that maybe we can find a connection. My Johann Hinrich Johannsen (B. 1802) and his wife Anna Margretha (Pohlmann) Johannsen (b. 1804) moved their family from Lindeberg, Fahrenstedt parish, to Meggerdorf in the early 1870's. Their oldest son Marx Jurgen Johannsen (b. 1828) may have been there in the early 1860's. Their other children were Margaretha (Johannsen) Jasper (b. 1830), Detlef Friedrich Johannsen (b. 1835), Catharina (Johannsen) Lorenzen (b. 1838), also 5 other sons which were deceased by 1878.
