Rasmussen Family Pictures

3 Generations: Nina, Lois and Grandma Micklesen

  Here is an awesome picture loaned to me by my Aunt Beryl Morley of the three generations of women in the Micklesen / Rassmussen Family. This picture was taken in 1911 when Lois was about 3 years old. Christina was probaly 73 years old in this picture. She died in July of 1911.

Nina's Six Brothers

  Nina's Six Brothers but only four are Identified. This would be Peter Mickelsen's six sons. You can see some of the names on the bottom.
Top Row Left to Right: Chris ( Christian Martinus?) Unknown, Unknown
Bottom Left to Right: Peter (Christian Peter) Fred (Christian Frederick) Jimmy (Jens Severin)
The other two are probably, Neils Christian and Jens Andreas. Christian may have been a popular name because the king in Denmark was named Christian. Also children were names after a relative so Danish families had a shortage of names until this tradition change in the late 1800's. If anyone has more information on this picture please let me know.
