births based on records of Kent Christoffersen
Søren becomes a baker in the area, following his
family's tradition. The bakery continued in family ownership
until
present. It was not used as a bakery after about 1980 but
instead was a
place that Poul Hedegaard and his sons used to process honey.
The old
bakery building had low a ceiling and open beam work and was
torn down
in 2003.

At some point,
perhaps to alleviate some of the confusion with so many
Christensons, Søren decides to use the
Hedegaard
last name.
Poul Hedegaard was
part
of the Resistance during the war. He along with
Askov, his
brother-in-law, helped to destroy the railway line that took
German
soldiers and arms into Norway. [Kent Christoffersen

Neils Hedegaard, son
of Søren, was responsible for
the
introduction of mink farming in the Jutland area. Søren Peter Hedegaard
recently
retires from the mink farming business.
