Hi Anne!
I just saw your post and will be able to help you. Karen Lovise Knudsen Reese's father and my grandmother were brother and sister. It will be nice to exchange information with you. I am away from home today and tomorrow, but will send soon.
Best regards,
Claire

Hi Anne and everyone else,

I am not sure if Claire intends to send documentation for Anne Sofie Larsen's parents?

If not, let me know and I will do that.

Kind of strange coincidence, but I have a day off tomorrow and if the weather permits, I will go to Lundforlund, where Anne Sofie Larsens parents lived.

My aim is simply to take some photos. It is a very small place and I suspect to find some where old houses and buildings that will depict what the village looked like back then, And I also expect to find a lot of modern day suburbian homes :)

If I go, I will share the photos and whatever else I find.

Wish you all a very nice Sunday.

Hello Anne,

I am happy to find a new cousin! Anna Fredrike Laurine Reese would have been my first cousin, (twice removed). We have many Reese descendants on this forum and I look forward to sharing information with you.

Regards,

Roy Schoneman
2nd great grandson of Fredrik Wilhelm Reese and Anna Sofie (Larson) Reese.

Hi all,

Unfortunately I won't be going to Lundforlund and Fuglebjerg today as planned.

I will do it some other time, when the weather is better.

Best regards

Hello
I am new at these pages, but it seems that we all are connected to Frederik Wilhelm Reese (or Friedrich as he was baptized).
I am a descendant of Friedrich Wilhelm Reese, who was my great great-grandfather. His next oldest child was Dorthea Vilhelmine Mathilde Sophie Reese born in Denmark.
The last two year I have made genealogy of all of my grandparents, including my grandfather Søren Moller Sørensen, who is the oldeste son of Dorthea Vilhelmine Mathilde Sophie Reese (my great-grandmother).
Dorthea was born in Norkjaer by Rønbjerg in Denmark on 30 August 1860, as the second daughter of Friedrich William Reese and Ane Sophie Larsen.
The children of Friedrich William Reese and Ane Sophie Larsen was:
1) Anna Christine Frederikke Reese, born 1859 in Denmark (Fuglbjerg)
2) Dorthea Wilhelmine Mathilde Sophie Reese, born 1860 in Denmark (Rønbjerg)
3) Frederikke Loteia Reese, born 1862 in Denmark (Ejdrup)
4) Marx Ditlef Laurits Reese, born 1864 in Denmark (Edelslund)
5) Carl Frederick William Reese, born 1866 in Norway - dead 30.12.1868 in Norway
6) Johan Heinrich Frederick Reese, born 1868 in Norway
7) Louise Marie Karoline Reese, born 1870 ii Norway
8) Laurina Mathilde Reese, born 1873 in Norway

I have some information about why Friedrich Wilhlem Reese and Ane Sophie Larsen left Denmark without their daughter (from the family history) and I have found out where Friedrich Wilhelm Reese comes from in Germany (the previous Denmark) and some of his siblings.
I can see that it is a year ago that there was last written anything on these pages so maybe it is not active anymore.

Best regards
Anne Marie

2nd great granddaughter of Fredrik Wilhelm Reese and Anna Sofie Larsen

Hi Anne Marie,

I am one of Karl Vilhelm Møller Sørensens great grandchildren (brother of Søren Møller Sørensen).

I don't think this forum is closed, but we communicate via email instead of here.

It is a puzzle where Dorothea was for 20 years of her life up to her marriage with Peter Jens Møller Sørensen and why she was left behind. So please do share :)

You and I should talk more preferably we could exchange stories in danish via email. Feel free to write to me at
henriette_dreier@hotmail.com

I am sure the rest of "team Reese" will be happy to have you take part in the emails with the "non-Danes".

I have done a lot of investigation in regards to Søren and Karls sister Sophie (nee Frederikke) who emigrated to United States, and I also have some info on the other sister: Magda (nee Karoline). I don't know why they decided to use their middlenames instead of their firstnames, but they obviously did.

Anne Marie,

I am happy to have a new person join us. I am an American descendant - a great grandson of Anna Kristine Fredrikke Reese. All of us in this forum have shared a lot of information. I look forward to sharing information with you.

If you wish, you can contact me directly at rwboylan@aol.com and I can send you all of the information I have.

Best regards,

Roy

Thank you all for your quick feedback
I have found out that Dorthea Reese grew up at a sister to Frederik Wilhelm Reese (Anna Cathrina Dorothea Reese). They had an Inn in Hørning (Aarhus region), where I have found her at census in 1870. I have not been able to find her confirmation or where she stays in the census 1880. Dorthea got a very hard upbringing without her parents and siblings. Yet Frederick and Sophie Reese are godfather/godmother in Denmark to one of Dortheas children, daughter Frederikke Sophie Katrine Sorensen, who was born in 1889.
I would like to share more information with you, but it takes a while to put it into English. I will contact you by email.
Anne Marie

Hello all. I am getting back into the research mode of this family and I find the digitalarkivet more difficult to use...i think once we learn to do something one way it is hard to change. At any rate...can anybody find these family units in Norway:

Nils Nelson Folkedahl b. 1934
his wife Synnev
their daughter Brita b. 10-5-1859

Nils Nelson Folkedahl b. 1934
his wife Ingeborg Fredriksdatter
their son Nels Folkedahl born 1866

I was wondering if the Nels Folkendahl is the same in each case?
thank you.

yes, I am thinking that this is his son...but I am not sure. This is what I have:

Nils Nelson Folkedahl born March 24, 1834 (according to his tombstone)
daughter (Maybe) Bertha Folkedahl born October 5, 1959. according to her obituary her parents were Nils and Synneva Folkedahl.

is this Nels or Nils Folkedahl the same person who was married to a Ingeborg Fredriksdatter...dob unknown but they had a child Nels Folkedahl born July 24, 1866 in Iowa, (Winneshiek County)?
