The Rasmussens in Census records

So after the Mikkelsens' I am now going to give you the family of Hans Fredrick Rasmussen as found on Danish Census records. Thanks to the Website:
http://www.ddd.dda.dk/kiplink_en.htm

Hans Fredrick Rasmussen does not show up on any of the census below but this gives us a great history of his parents and their families.
So here is the List of Census: I only have a little information. If this is not very explanatory please comment and let me know what questions you have. Please review these carefully. I tried to make notes to explain how they all match up. I find the census a great tool to put families and their history together.

Hans Fredrick is not born yet but this 1880 Census was in his birth year. On this website this is the last available census for Lyngby, I guess we either find the rest on microfilm or wait for it to be processed. According to my quick translation guide Jens was a plumber. I suppose this would be a new industry in Denmark.

Mikkelsen Family by Census

In this post I want to share two things. First How my great Grandmother Anina Marie Mikkelsen got her name of Mikkelsen and second, show a brief history of the Mikkelsen family through the government census. I think for anyone interested in the Mikkelsen family line you will find this interesting. Census records in Denmark were not done every 10 year's like in the US but at sporadic times and some times every five years which is great for Genealogist. The problems with census is they were written by hand and sometimes the information available was very poor. ages don't always add up and names for some people are very different. I obtain all of this information from the following website:

Mikkel Christian Christensen is named after his grandfather. His name is carried over to his son through Patronymics which then gives the name of Peter Mikkelsen. For those of you following my Christensen blog you will notice that both family lines have a Mikkel Christian Christensen. It is very interesting but this is a very common name in Denmark at this time. Just a note Mikkel is also referred to as Michael.

Ramussen Family Quiz

  So I am going to quiz you on your knowledge of the Rasmussen family. Can anyone name the couple in this picture.
Hint: Look at my previous blogs for an answer.

Jens Peter Rasmussen and Marie Kerstine Nielsen Poder

  I found this picture in some of my files and had to share it. Let me know if you have any pictures that you have of the Rasmussens or Mikkelsens you would like to share.
