Christian Hansen
born Feb. 3/ 1865
He was born Christian Hansen Ankersen 
his father was a knight in gollep castle (I think that is how you spell it) his 
mother was a sevant. He was placed in an orpanage across the border. when he 
came of age Germany wanted to draft him and he stowed away on a cattle boat. 

In the 1900 census (in the United States) his mother christine was living with 
him she had been here 12 years had had 4 children 3 were alive the only one we 
know of is Christian. Her last name is listed as Hansen , he dropped the 
Ankersen when he became a citizen the story is she had a sister Mary in Chicago. 
Was it her sister or a daughter? in 1900 christine is 70 it is 
said she went to chicago to be with Mary. Anker was most likey the first name of 
his father.

	Hei Helge (Jeg pr�ver p� engelsk, hvis din kusine kigger med) Using Google I found Christian Hansen-Ankersen (b. 1865) and GUSTAFSON & JESSEN FAMILY TREES (http://familytrees.genopro.com/panther/Gustafson-Jessen/default.htm?page=Hansen-Ankersen-Christian-ind00216.htm). Perhaps you allready know this site? On FamilySearch (http://www.familysearch.org/eng/search/PRF/individual_record.asp?recid=980511137) that he was married 1886 i Troy, Renns, NY with Caroline Jessen, whose background I gave a closer look. The results i temporaraly on http://find-relation.net - Diverse sl�gter under udforskning. Try search on Firstname: Caroline Lastname: Jessen and show "Family Tree" and you can see what I've found until now, and from which source - mostly http://www.arkivalieronline.dk/. Caroline Jessen (1867 Nov 22 -> 1946 Mar 19 ) and her siblings are all born in Heisager, Halk sogn, Haderslev Amt during the period 1856 - 1875. The parents are Johannes Jessen (1830 Aug 18 -> 1922 Nov 18 ), born Heisager, Halk sogn, Haderslev Amt and Cathrina Christine Jeppesdatter Kronborg (1829 May 20 -> 1908 Oct 08 ), born N�rrebye, Vilstrup sogn, Haderslev Amt A few of the children are Christened in Grarup sogn - just north of Halk. The original source from http://www.arkivalieronline.dk/ shows the exact birthnames. Probably have some of them changed their names a little according to GUSTAFSON & JESSEN FAMILY TREES. Jes Peter Jessen (1879 Sep 18 -> 1905 May 05 ), also born in Heisager, was not Carolines biological brother, but a son of her sister Johanne Cathrine Jessen (1862 Apr 19 -> 1947 ) with unknown father. Carolines Confirmation took place in Halk sogn 1882 Mar 26, so the family must have left Denmark (actually Germany at that period) between 1882 and 1886 before her marriage i Newyork. Unfortunately I don't now (yet) where to find Christian Hansens birth, so right now I can't give you anything about his backgruound. Kind Regards Ole Dalsgaard Jensen

	Hej Ole! Thank you very much. Indeed you gave us a great help finding facts about Caroline Jessen. But finding birthdates etc. for Christian Hansen-Ankersen is nearly impossible, as he was born in Germany. Once more: Thanks for your help! Kind Regards Helge
