Map of Maribo County, Denmark


This is a map of the county Grandpa Jensen came from. The family lived basically in the western part of the county. For those of you who read the family trees having a visual reference of the location of the various parishes should be interesting. It's a very small geographic area!

Peder's Tree

This is the tree for Peder's ancestors (Peder was Grandpa Jensen's father, married to Rasmine).
I got a lot of information here! The majority of records were found in the Danish archives.
All records are from Maribo Amt (county) in Denmark. Any record that has a page number ("ops ##") is one that I verified (actually SAW the handwritten record in the parish church book). Some records were from www.familysearch.org. Records were also verified thru the online Danish census records.
Enjoy!

Updated Trees



I've been researching the Danish church book records for the past five months and have a lot of new information to add. Previously I posted a tree with Rasmine's ancestors (Rasmine was my great-grandmother, the mother of Grandpa George Jensen). Well, that's a bit outdated now... and so here are updated trees for Rasmine's parents - one for her father Jens Laurits Rasmussen and one for her mother Ane Jakobsdatter.
