Inger Christensdatter Family: Sister to Anders

 1860 Skaeve Cenus, page 11.  I had given up on finding anything more about Inger but then stumbled across her family in the 1860 census.  Here she is listed with her husband Thomas Chr. Nielsen, age 38, Inger Christensdatter, age 35, Niels Chr. Thomsen, 8, Christian Thomsen, 3, and Thomas's mother Kirsten Pedersdatter, age 70 and a widow.  Inger is born in Horby, Thomas in Skaeve, Niels in Torslev, and Christian in Skaeve.  Kirsten, the widow, was also born in Skaeve.  The documents below are for her and her husbands family.
