Can I please ask for help in finding the death record for Hansine Kjær nee Poulsen?
She was born on 26 September 1823 and christened on 21 December 1823 in Rudkøbing parish (1822 - 1832, Opslag 20, 1824, Record 2).
She was vaccinated on 6 July 1824.
She is in the 1834 census in Rudkøbing with her parents Jørgen Poulsen and Karen Hansdatter.
She was confirmed in Easter 1838.
She married Morten Jensen Kjær on 24 February 1843 in Rudkøbing parish (1832-1845, 1843, Opslag 133, Record 1).
She is in the 1845 census in Rudkøbing with her husband Morten.
She is then in the 1850 census in Rørvig with husband Morten.
She is recorded in the 1855, 1860, 1870 census in Vestervig with her husband Morten.
The last record I have of Hansine is in the 1880 census living with her daughter Cathinka Rebækka Kjær, as her husband Morten died on 21 February 1878 in Harboøre parish (1842 - 1891, Opslag 46, Record 2).
Hello Hansine and other

Hi Hansine,
Do you know where Hansine and Morten Kjær's children settled? Maybe Hansine moved to live with one of her children after her husband died.
Best regards,
Inger T.
Hi Inger and Flemming
Flemming - thanks so much for your data file - it is incredible!
Inger - Unfortunately I have not been able to find much information about Morten and Hansine's children other than Christian (who went to Australia). I am assuming that maybe Hansine continued to stay with her daughter Cathinka in Harbooøre after 1880 but it is possible she went to live with her other nine children too.

Inger.
You are wonderful! You have found so much information for me - thank you.
After your information, I just googled the Skive cemetery, and I found the headstone for her daughter Rasmine at Skive's Church of Our Lady at www.danskkgindex.dk/skive/skive_visbilled.php?img=/skive/pics_12_13/P1010369.jpg
I tried to see if Hansine was also buried at Skive Church of Our Lady, but I could not find a listing for her. I am guessing it is possible, but she may also be buried in one of the other Skive churches.
The new church (the "red" church") in Skive was constructed 1896-1898:
http://www.skivesogn.dk/om-kirkerne/skive-kirke/
- so Hansine probably was buried at Vor Frue Kirke in Skive (the "white church"):

Best regards,

I have another question! And it might be a silly question.
Can someone please let me know - if Hansine was born and christened in the parish of Rudkøbing (Rudkøbing Parish, 1822 - 1832, Opslag 20, 1824, Record 2) - how can I know which church that is? Is there only one parish church for Rudkøbing?
I found the following Rudkøbing Church address:
Rudkøbing Kirke
Kirkepladsen 1
5900 Rudkøbing
Is it possible there would have been another church in the Rudkøbing area?
No, there was only one (lutheran) church in the small town of Rudkøbing and no other churches. Before 1849 there were no freedom of religion in Denmark. It was compulsory to be christened and member of the Danish National Church. The church goes back to the middle ages.
