Andreas Christensen Family: Older brother to Anders Christensen (Husband of Nicolena)

 Birth, Horby parish register, page 99.  Rasmine Christine Andreasen is born November 7, 1852 to the unmarried Nicoline Rasmusdatter and the father Andreas Christensen of Mosenhuus.  She is christened December 26.

 Marriage, Horby parish register, page 172.  Andreas age 21 1/2, and Nicolene, age 24, are married October 9, 1855.

 Birth, Torslev parish register, page 98.  Trine Andreasen is born June 21, 1856.  It appears that Andreas's father Christen Jensen is present.

 Birth, Torslev parish register, page 12.  Jens Christian Andreasen is born December 10, 1858 and christened January 2, 1859.  I believe two brothers of Andreas are present including Anders and Jens.

 1860 Torslev Census, page 17.  Andreas is 26 born in Horby and is listed as a baptist along with his wife Nicolene age 28 born in Lendum parish.  Listed are their three children Rasmine, age 8 born in Horby, as well as Trine, age 4, and Jens Christian, age 2.  They children are listed as Lutheran.

 Birth, Torslev parish register, page 29.  Carl Christian Andreasen is born February 9, 1862.  There is no christening date listed.

Birth, Torslev parish register, page 64.  Caroline is born March 11, 1865.  There is no christening date listed for her as well.  I cannot find the family in the 1870 or 1880 Torslev census.  I do not know what happens to them and cannot find deaths for them listed in the Torslev parish registers or the surrounding  parishes.
