Good morning! My name is Jonelle and I am helping my mother Marlene Jacobsen to find out more about her Danish family history. I am writing from California USA and we are planning a trip in September to come to Ribe, Bredebro, Denmark to see where her Grandfather was born. We will be in Bredebro September 11 and 12, 2018. If you know of anyone we can reach out to learn more about our family please let me know. Also, do I need an interpreter? Can you please recommend one?
Christian Jacobsen BIRTH 16 MAR 1815 • Seest, Anst, Ribe, Denmark DEATH 1897
This has been very difficult for me to research. Christian Jacobsen had two sisters form what I can find: Johanne JACOBSDATTER BIRTH 30 DEC 1818 • Ballum, Tonder, Denmark DEATH 24 JUN 1885 • Brede, Tonder, Denmark
Ane Marie Jacobsdatter HANSEN BIRTH 30 DEC 1818 • Ballum, Tonder, Denmark
DEATH 06 MAY 1855 • Ballum, Tonder, Denmark
I know so little about him that I felt I should come to Ribe to help my mother discover more information. Christian was married two times and our family is from his second wife Inge Marie Hansen BIRTH 1831 • Bredebro, Sonderjylland, Denmark. Christian's son, Peter Christian Jacobsen is my mother's Grandfather.
If you can help me in any way to find out more about Christen Jacobsen I would be so grateful.
THANK YOU! Kind regards, Jonelle in Loomis, California, USA
It is doubtful that you will need an interpreter. I spent 17 days in Denmark this past January and did not meet a single Dane who didn't speak English. The people there are really wonderful.
Sincerely,
Paul

Good day Inger, I can not believe the amount of information you have found. Thank YOU! I wonder does it say how Marie Ulricksdatter died? I know one of her family in Chicago so I will share this information. Where do you live? You are a very good researcher! Thank you again, Jonelle'

- research for descendants is complicated by the fact that we have no censuses from
Sønderjylland in the period 1864 - 1920.
Censuses were taken, but the German authorities destroyed them after they had been used for statistical purposes.
There could e.g. be descendants of Peter Bendix Jacobsen( born 1821) and Hans Christian Jacobsen (born 1826).
Christian Jacobsen's daughter Hansine (born 1845) was married 16 Oct. 1875 in Brede to Nis Jørgen Hansen:

This information has been so helpful and much appreciated. I have been out of town visiting my daughter (and grandkids) so pardon my delays in thanking you. All of this will be very helpful for our trip to Denmark. I am working on getting it all into my geneology records now. I plan on visiting the archives when we visit Bredebro. so thank you also for the link. Kindest regards, Jonelle'
