MORTENSEN (Denmark)

Posted by Elf Flame Saturday, January 15, 2011 comments ( 0 )

Meaning/Pronunciation: Pronunciation: Mor-ten-sen Meaning: Child of Morten.

Origin: Danish.

Variations: The usual Scandinavian variations.

Relation to me: This is my father's mother's father's father's mother's mother's father's mother's maiden name.

Ancestors:
i: Mortensdatter, Abalone, 1744 – 1826, Vejle, Denmark; Frants Mathiasen, 1 son known

ii: Jorgensen, Morten, ? - ?, Denmark?, 1 daughter known

Looking for:
At the moment, I'm happy with this branch, despite knowing very little.

Learning about Abalone came with information about how she was apparently born in a graveyard, which is always a fun story to tell.

I'd love to know more about her siblings or children, but I'm in no rush on this side.

About this blog

This blog is maintained by two sisters who have had a life long interest in geneology.
Mika writes here mostly about our family (Hansen, Hillinger, Bordewick, Park, etc), and her search for more information.
Shannon mostly uses this space as a place to make the many stories written about and by her husband's family (Holly, Walker, Walpole, etc) available to the rest of the family, present and future.

Our blog is named Oh Spusch! mostly because Shannon is bad at naming things. The first post I put up includes a story about the time Walker's great grandfather took his whole family out to see a play and the littlest kept saying "Oh! Spusch!" No one ever figured out what she meant by that.
