My Jutland Family
Until now I have limited my genealogical research to Jutland. More
precisely, the land to the north of the “Kongeaaen” that was the
boundary between Denmark and Germany in the years 1864-1920. In old times
it was the boundary between North Jutland and Schleswig-Holstein.
My parents come from two different places in Jutland. That is why I have
separated my family table into two parts. My father's family comes from
Himmerland (North Jutland) and West Jutland. My mother's family comes from
East Jutland.
My family is a typical example of the composition of the population over
a period of time. It is mostly farmers, people of humble means and, to a
limited number, people of higher social classes.
I have been working on my family history for more than 25 years, and I
still do. I have found much information in literature of genealogy and
local history, as well as on the Internet. But the greater part is found
by doing research in the various archives in Denmark.
For the present you will only find my
family history in full text for a few persons. You will find
genealogical tables for my grand-parents, and an index of names and places.
