Mens vi - familien i Møllen - stort set intet kendte til farfars søskende og deres efterkommere, har vi ikke alene haft kendskab til farmors søskende, men også et nært for­ hold til flere af deres børn og børnebørn.

I det følgende kapitel skal vi se nærmere på farmors søskende og deres efterkommere.

Holtegaard line:
Great-grandfather Otto Larsen, 1812 – 1890, took over Holtegaard in 1840 when he was 28 years old. At the same time, he married the 17 -year-old daughter Mette Christendatter 1823-1905, daughter of farmer Christen Christensen and Inger Andersdatter from Str. Søraa.

Like his father Otto expanded the farm by the purchase of additional land. Furthermore in 1855, he took over V. Nejsig from his brother, Jens, but sold the farm two years later. Great-grandfather Otto lived until he was 77; great-grandmother Mette until she was 82. They had 12 children, of whom grandmother was number two:

Karen Ottosdatter, 1842-1916
Inger Marie Ottosdatter, 22.2.1843-13.8.1915
Lars Ottosen, 1844-1912

Notes:

Lars Jensen, 3.2.1776 - 6.6.1843, blev gift 27 år gl. - samme år, som han ved faderens død overtog Holtegaard. Af overtagelsespapirerne fremgår detaljeret, hvilke aftægtsforpligtelser han fik overfor moderen. Hans kone var: Karen Ottosdatter, 1776 – 1839. Hun var datter af Otto Larsen og Maren Simonsdatter, Store Kjærsgaard ved Dronninglund.
I 1813 - da Lars og Karen havde fået de første 4 af deres 6 nedennævnte børn - købte Lars Store Kjærsgaard, ligesom han i de følgende ar købte yderligere jorder til Holtegaard. De fik således en række fremgangsrige år, indtil Karen Ottosdatter døde 64 år gl. i 1839. Året efter overdrog den jævnaldrende enkemand Holtegaard til sønnen Otto og kom selv på aftægt hos ham og hans kone til sin død 3 år senere.

Lars Jensen og Karen Ottosdatter's 6 børn er af Kr. Værnfelt (se kildefortegnelse) opdelt i flere linier:
Jens Larsen, 1804-1882, Rottruplinien,
Berthel Larsen, 1806-1855, Nørresundbylinien,
Maren Larsdatter, 1809-1897, Aslundlinien,
Otto Larsen, 1812-1890, Holtegaardlinien,
Niels Larsen, 1815-1899, Skelgaardlinien,
Else Margrethe Larsdatter, f.1819, død som barn.

Oldefar Otto Larsen tegner sig altså for Holtegaardlinien, som har primær interesse. Men vi skal først se lidt på hans søskende, da jeg har tilknytning til flere af deres efterkommere.

Rottruplinien:
Jens Larsen ejede først V.Nejsig, men fra 1855 Nørre Rottrup. Han var gift med 1) Margrethe Nielsdatter (1811-1842) og 2) Johanne Amalie Larsdatter (1822-1874) og havde ialt syv børn. Af dem skal to omtales:
A. Lars Jensen (1830-1899) ejede ø. Nejsig. Med sin kone Mette Kristine Madsdatter (1835-1912) fik han fire børn, deraf sønnen Niels Larsen (1875-1924), som overtog ø. Nej­ sig og var gift med min farmors niece Thomine Hansine Ing­vardsen (1875-1948). ø.Nejsig blev videreført af deres søn, Lars Nejsig Larsen (1904-1945), som var gift med Elna "Søster" Nielsen-Gravholt (f.1912), og hvis søn Niels Nejsig Larsen (f . 943) er den nuværende ejer af ø. Nejsig. Via en anden søn blev Lars Jensen og hans kone iøvrigt oldeforældre til Marie Sørensen (f.1926), som er gift med Peter Myhren (f.1922).
B. Niels Jensen (1834-1901) ejede Gravholt. Med sin kone Marie Jacobi Christensdatter (1843-1925) fik han elleve børn. Via en af sønnerne blev de farforældre til de to søstre: Elna "Søster" Nielsen-Gravholt, der jfr. ovenfor blev gift med sin halvfcetter Lars Nejsig Larsen, og Kathrine "Trine" Nielsen-Gravholt (f.1914), som blev gift med Erik Larsen (1911-1994), Gl. Kærsgaard i Tylstrup, senere Nørre Ravnstrup. Via en datter blev de endvidere oldeforældre til Grethe Badsberg (f.1923), som blev gift med Erik Larsens bror Niels "Nit" Larsen (1920-1996).

Nørresundbylinien:
Berthel Larsen var gift med Christiane Sindalsdatter (1796-1844) og havde en ugift søn samt en datter, som blev gift Høyer og fik syv børn, hvoraf de første seks forblev ugifte. Der er antagelig kun efterkommere efter den syvende, som blev bogbinder i København.

Aslundlinien:
Maren Larsdatter blev gift med sin fars fætter på mødrene side Lars Jensen (1801-1865), øster Aslund, og fik en søn og to døtre.
Datteren Johanne Kirstine Laura Larsdatter (1848-1930) blev gift med Søren Roesdahl (1853-1922), overtog øster Aslund og fik tre døtre: Mathilde, gift Høst, Larzetty, gift Teisen, og Edele, som var ugift og overtog øster Aslund efter forældrene. (Den Karen Roesdahl, som nu har gården Baalen i Gandrup, er barnebarn af Søren Roesdahls bror Christian. Hun har en datter, som bor i Dyrlægegården i Gandrup, hvor mine forældre boede, inden de flyttede til Hougaards Mølle).

Maren Larsdatters anden datter, Jensine Karoline Frederikke Larsdatter (1852-1930) blev gift med sin fætter Lars Otto­ sen, som var min farmors bror.

Skelgaardlinien:
Niels Larsen blev gift med Marie Pedersdatter (1806-1883), som var enke på Skelgaarden, og fik tre døtre, hvoraf den ene blev gift Buhl, den anden døde ugift som 27-årig og den tredie som 19-årig.

Holtegaardlinien:
Oldefar Otto Larsen, 1812 – 1890 overtog Holtegaard i 1840, da han var 28 år. Samtidig blev han gift med den 17 årige Mette Christensdatter 1823 – 1905, datter af gårdmand Chris en Christensen og Inger Andersdatter, Sdr. Søraa.

Ligesom faderen udvidede Otto ved køb af yderligere jorder. Endvidere overtog han i 1855 V. Nejsig fra sin bror Jens, men solgte gården igen to år senere. Oldefar Otto levede, til han blev 77, oldemor Mette til hun blev 82. De fik ikke mindre end 12 børn, hvoraf farmor var nummer to:

Mens vi - familien i Møllen - stort set intet kendte til farfars søskende og deres efterkommere, har vi ikke alene haft kendskab til farmors søskende, men også et nært for­ hold til flere af deres børn og børnebørn.

I det følgende kapitel skal vi se nærmere på farmors søskende og deres efterkommere.

Lars Jensen, 02/03/1776 - 06/06/1843, married when he was 27 years old, the same year that his father died and he took over the farm, Holtegaard. From the farm transfer papers we see in detail his responsibilities to take care of his mother on the farm during her lifetime. His wife was, Karen Ottosdatter, 1776 – 1839. She was the daughter of Otto Larsen and Maren Simonsdatter from the farm “Store Kjærsgaard” near Dronninglund.

In 1813 when Lars and Karen had the first 4 of their 6 children, he bought Store Kjærsgaard, and in the following year he bought additional land to Holtegaard. They had a number of successful years until Karen Ottosdatter died in 1839at the age of 64. A year later he handed over the farm Holtegaard to his son Otto, and became a pensioner on the farm until his death three years later.

Lars Jensen and Karen Ottosdatter had 6 children which eventually were divided into several family farm lines:
Jens Larsen, 1804-1882, Rottruplinien,
Berthel Larsen, 1806-1855, Nørresundby line,
Maren Larsdatter, 1809-1897, Aslundlinien,
Otto Larsen, 1812-1890, Holtegaard line,
Niels Larsen, 1815-1899, Skelgaard line,
Else Margrethe Larsdatter, f.1819, died as a child.

Great-grandfather Otto Larsen chose the Holtegaard Line, which was his primary interest. But we must first talk about his siblings as I am in contact with several of their descendants.

Rottruplinien:
Jens Larsen first owned V. Nejsig, but from 1855 he owned North Rottrup . He was married to 1) Margrethe Nielsdatter (1811-1842) and 2) Johanne Amalie Larsdatter (1822-1874) and had a total of seven children. Of those, two mentioned:

A. Lars Jensen (1830-1899) owned Ø. Nejsig. With his wife Mette Kristine Madsdatter (1835-1912) he had four children, of which his son Niels Larsen (1875-1924), took over Ø. Nejsig and he was married to my paternal grandmother's niece Thomine Hansine Ingvardsen (1875-1948). Ø. Nejsig was taken over by their son, Lars Nejsig Larsen (1904-1945), who was married to Elna " Søster " Nielsen Gravholt (b.1912 ) , and whose son Niels Nejsig Larsen (b. 1943 ) is the current owner of the Ø. Nejsig. Another son, Lars Jensen and his wife became the great-grandparents to Marie Sørensen (b.1926), who is married to Peter Myhren (b.1922).

B. Niels Jensen (1834-1901) owned Gravholt. With his wife Marie Jacobi Christendatter (1843-1925) had eleven children. Via one of the sons was the paternal grandparents to the two sisters: Elna " Søster " Nielsen Gravholt (shown above) was married to his second cousin Lars Nejsig Larsen, and Kathrine " Trine " Nielsen-Gravholt ( b.1914 ) , who was married to Erik Larsen ( 1911-1994 ), Gl Kærsgaard Tylstrup, later North Ravnstrup . Via a daughter, they were also great-grandparents to Grethe Badsberg (b.1923), who was married to Erik Larsen's brother Niels "Nit" Larsen (1920-1996).

Nørresundby line:
Berthel Larsen was married to Christiane Sindalsdatter (1796-1844) and had an unmarried son and a daughter who married Høyer, and had seven children, of which the first six remained unmarried. There are probably only descendants of the seventh, who became a bookbinder in Copenhagen.

Aslundlinien:
Maren Larsdatter married her father’s cousin, Lars Jensen (1801-1865), Ø. Aslund, and they had one son and two daughters. The daughter Johanne Kirstine Laura Larsdatter (1848-1930) married Søren Roesdahl (1853-1922), and took over Ø. Aslund and had three daughters: Mathilde, married Høst, Larzetty, married Teisenberg and Edele, who was unmarried and took over Ø. Aslund after parents. (The Karen Roesdahl, who now has the farm Baalen in Gandrup, is the grandson of Soren Roesdahl’s brother Christian. She has a daughter who lives in Dyrlægegården Farm in Gandrup where my parents lived before they moved to Hougaard's Mølle).

Maren Lars daughter's second daughter, Jensine Karoline Fred Larsdatter (1852-1930) married her cousin, Lars Ottosen, who was my paternal grandmother's brother.

Skeletons yard line:
Niels Larsen married Marie Pedersdatter (1806-1883), who was the widow of Skelgaarden, and they had three daughters, one of whom was married Buhl, the other died unmarried age of 27 and the third at 19.

Holtegaard line:
Great-grandfather Otto Larsen, 1812 – 1890, took over Holtegaard in 1840 when he was 28 years old. At the same time, he married the 17 -year-old daughter Mette Christendatter 1823-1905, daughter of farmer Christen Christensen and Inger Andersdatter from Str. Søraa.

Like his father Otto expanded the farm by the purchase of additional land. Furthermore in 1855, he took over V. Nejsig from his brother, Jens, but sold the farm two years later. Great-grandfather Otto lived until he was 77; great-grandmother Mette until she was 82. They had 12 children, of whom grandmother was number two:

Karen Ottosdatter, 1842-1916
Inger Marie Ottosdatter, 22.2.1843-13.8.1915
Lars Ottosen, 1844-1912
Christian Ottosen, 1846-1918
Else Margrethe Ottosdatter, 1848-1910
Carl Jens Arenstorff Ottosen, 1850-1934
Johanne Marie Ottosdatter, 1852-1934
Jens Ottosen, b.1854, died young
Berthel Ottosen, b.1856, died young
Bertel Line Ottosdatter, 1859-1914
Jens Berthel Ottosen, 1860-1945
Guido Dusine Ottosdatter, 1862-1941

While we - the family in the mill farm basically knew nothing grandfather's siblings and their descendants, we were not only aware of my grandmother's siblings, but also had a close relationship with several of their children and grandchildren.

Lars married Karen Ottosdatter in 1803 in Danmark. Karen (daughter of Otto Larsen and Maren Simonsdatter) was born in 1776 in Kjærsgaard, Aså-Melholt Sogn, Hjørring Amt, Danmark; died in 1839 in Holtegaard, Dronninglund Sogn, Hjørring Amt, Danmark; was buried in Kirkegård, Dronninglund, Dronninglund Sogn, Hjørring Amt, Danmark.
