Hello
I have found church book of my grandfather(einar laursen) born in july 6th 1894 and baptised in Also parish and am wondering how to proceed further since all my other searches have gone nowhere? I will be in randers this summer for a few days.
THANK YOU
Best wishes

Hi Annette,
Which kind of information are you looking for? Ancestors? Decendents? Einars parents or his siblings - or something else?
Best regards,
Mette
Hi Mette
I am unable to find anything on Einar(my grandfather) or my great grandfather (Laurs Hansen Laursen) or my great grandmother(Bolette Cecilie Knudsen). I have searched censuses and many other web sources to no avail.
It would fun to see where they lived and died. If nothing is available on the web perhaps i could have a starting point in Randers when i get there? I have limited time however when there.
Best wishes
THANK YOU

Hi
Einars parents and older brother is in the online census from Ålsø parish, Randers county, 1890 (opslag 18 in the old scannings).
The census shows their birth place to be Essenbæk parish, Randers County.
The older brother Wilhelm is born Sep. 5th 1888 in Essenbæk parish, Randers county, (opslag 20), when the father was serving the army in Odense. The parents was not married at that time.
The village Ålsø is close to Grenå.

Hi,
Is there any reason why I can not find any of these relatives after the 1894's census? I am using the Danish Family Search records. I know that Einar Laursen (my grandfather) arrived in 1913 in the USA but as far as I know everyone else stayed in Denmark.
Thank You So Very Much!

Hi Anne,

Will be plugging the links into the GPS when we get to Denmark :)
