Welcome to Nelson Roots

Jens Pedersen and Mariane Mortensdatter
Jens and Mariane are the parents of Kirsten Marie Jensdatter who married Anders Christensen who begat Nicolena who married Charles Nielsen who begat Carlos who begat Jay yada yada yada. I do not have their parish records yet however, I have found them in the 34, 40, 45, 50 and 55 census. That is interesting because New Family Search has Jens dying in 1851 yet in the 55 census he is apparently doing well despite his demise four years prior. They had six children according to the new family search, but only four are listed on the census and one of those four are not on the new family search file so there is some work to do here. The children listed on the new family search are; Morten Christen Jensen twice, assuming one died and the next child was given the same name, Dorthe, Kirsten, and Johane Marie Jensen. The census lists a Hans Peter Jensen, Morten Christen Jensen, Dorthe Jensen, and Kirsten. Hans is not listed in new family search but is listed as a son on the census and the census has no information on Johane so I am not sure where the mistake is but clearly there is one. I have found the other four childrens parish records:
Hans Birth Taars 1825
Dorthe Birth Taars 1831
Kirsten Birth Taars 1833
Hans Birth Taars 1825
Morten Birth Taars 1828
Dorthe Birth Taars 1831
Kirsten Birth Taars 1833
