Laurs and Gedskas second child


Galten Sonder Parish register, page 48. Birth #8 on April 3, 1842 was Ane Marie Kirstine Laursen, the second child to Laurs and Gedska. Her parents are listed as being from Galten at the time. Some names I can make out in the right hand columns include: Soren Rasmussen, Maren? Hansen, Niels Nielsen and Kirstine Nielsdatter of Galten Parish. Friends or family I'm not sure. Laurs did not have a brother named Soren that we know of. Galten parish was in Arhus county while Laurs was born in Viborg county. This is the first time I've noted the family moving oustide of Viborg. That may change as we continue looking.
