Mikkel
Poulsen Møller Family
Denmark
Morup Mølle (Morup Mill), Denmark.
Before and during the 1930's the
lake behind the mill became a recreation area.
The mill by this time was already
not functioning as a mill.

Morup Mølle, the town, is the birth place of Kristine
Sørensdatter.
Michel Paulson comes to the town and eventually becomes "the
miller."
This how he came by the last name of Møller, meaning
miller. He also
dies
here. [Christoffersen]
This small town on the Jutland Pennisula still has a building on
the
site of the old mill but it now houses a restaurant next the stream. A
two lane country road runs in front of the building and crosses the
stream
with a small bridge. A narrow park with walking path now extends up and
down the stream through the hamlet. This was apparently a tourist spot
in Denmark during the 1930's and 40's. People were primarily attracted
by the nearby Northsea beaches and freshwater lake created by the
stream.
1796, Apr 23 - There is a marriage recorded for Michel Poulsen and Kirstine Sørensdatter in
Bested,
Thisted, Denmark. [LDS mar. of Bested]
1801- Census in Thisted county, Denmark. Mikkel and Kirstine are
