L ~ Langt tilbage i tiden.

     Hver dag klokken 12 (undtagen søndag) kommer dagens A-Z indlæg, hvis der altså kommer et.
     Temaet for i år er Resilience som teamet har valgt, og jeg har valgt undertemaet Blomster, træer og forfædre, så lad os se, hvad der falder mig ind til det tema.

A - Z

  Every day at noon (except Sundays) a new A-Z post goes live - or no post today.
  The theme for this year is Resilience as given by the team, with my subtitle Flowers, Trees and Ancestors.

L for (lidt for) langt tilbage i tiden

Johanne Kirstine Madsdatters forfædre er dem, hvor jeg kan komme absolut længst tilbage i tiden. Jeg ved ikke noget om den, andet end at de var husmænd og håndværkere i Nielstrup ved Ulse. Ulse var et sogn i Fakse amt, Præstø herred og der går kirkebøgerne helt tilbage til 1717.
     Hvordan arbejder jeg mig så langt tilbage? Denne gang var jeg virkeligt heldig. I folketællingen for 1787, kan jeg finde Johanne Kirstines far, Mads Jensen, som 7-årig. Og naturligt nok bor han sammen med sin mor, sin far og sine fem søskende, men til mit held bor også hans mormor og morfar sammen med dem.

L for (A Little too) far back in time

Johanne Kirstine Madsdatter's ancestors are the ones where I can go absolutely furthest back in time. I do not know anything about them, other than that they were smallholders and craftsmen in Ulse. Ulse was a parish in Fakse county, Præstø shire and the church registers here reach back to 1717.

How do I work my way this far back? This time around I was really lucky. In the census for 1787, I can find Johanne Kirstine's father, Mads Jensen, as a 7-year-old child. And of course he lives with his mother, his father and his five siblings, but luckily for me, his grandmother and grandfather also live with them.

Fin afskrift fra Danish Family Search (let revideret).

Mormor er altså Sidse Hansdatter. Jeg har fundet hende i kirkebøgerne. Hun blev døbt 26. marts1719 og døde 13. august 1797
Morfar er Ole Hansen født omkring 1714 (inden kirkebøgerne igen) og død 16. august 1789.

Nice copy from Danish Family Search (slightly edited).
Ergo his mother's mother was Sidse Hansdatter. I have found her in the church records. She was baptised March 26, 1719 and died August 13, 1797
Grandfather is Ole Hansen born around 1714 (before the registers once again) and died August 16, 1789 (I found this).

Og eftersom kirkebøgerne for Ulse begyndte i 1717, kommer vi ikke længere tilbage og så er det ret svært at finde folk i kirkebøgerne så langt tilbage. Her er vi så langt tilbage som muligt. Sidse Hansdatter. Her er hendes dåb indskrevet i kirkebogen på side 4.

Since the church records for Ulse began in 1717, we can't go back any further. It is also quite difficult to find people in the church records this far back. Let's take a look as far back as possible. Sidse Hansdatter's baptism is recorded here on page 4.

Kan I finde hende?  Dåbsbørnenes navne er normalt fremhævet med understregninger.
     Her er lidt hjælp.
- Hun er født Nielstrup (1 km. syd for Ulse),
- hendes far hed Hans Pedersen.
- Hun er døbt den 26. marts, der det år var 5. søndag i fasten, også kaldet Dominica Judica.

Can you find her?  The names of baptised children are usually underlined.
     Here is a little help:
- She was born in Nielstrup (1 km. south of Ulse),
- her father's name was Hans Pedersen.
- She was baptised March 26, which in 1717 was the 5th Sunday of Lent, also called Dominica Judica.

L

     Men ... præsten har glemt at understrege netop hendes navn, så her har jeg været inde over med den gule overstregningspen

L

But the vicar forgot to underline her name. I have used the yellow highlighter here.

Det er altså ikke helt let.       L       Not that easy, you must admit.
