Peder
Christensen
#1
Family
Jutland peninsula,
Denmark
I'm not certain of the
connections here and I need some help. There are some
20+ individuals recorded in the LDS files between 1705
and 1720 for what looks like different Peder
Christensens in Ringkobing amt. There are also just as
many or more Christen Pedersen. This is
madness.

The research here was done by Cora Christofferson from Danish
church records. Since Denmark was one of the last areas of
Europe to adopt Catholicism, the records of births and death are
limited only to the time beginning with these church
records. These churches later became Lutheran. Most of these
records are maintained in local archives and were microfilmed by
the LDS. We still have an incomplete history of this family and I
look forward to information that can complete the lists of the
children.
I can't identify
which individual may be our ancestor from available records.
There are two Johanne Jensdatters of approximately the correct age
and in the correct region. I look forward to some
finding proof of one or the other as our family member.
Records are missing in some of the areas for the years we need and
the available records are extremely difficult to read.
Consequently we are just guessing here and hope that someone has a
different kind of record to fill in the gaps.

1740 Jan 10 - married on 14th Feb. Christen Pedersen is
married in Nørre Nissum church, Ringkøbing, Denmark. His bride is
listed as Ann Jensdatter of Falborg. This marriage is not
possible if he was born only in 1733. Something is wrong
in combination of records.
