Notes:

Thomas Jensen var min morfar. Vi skal i det følgende kapitel høre om hans søskende, ligesom vi naturligvis senere skal høre om hans ægteskab med min mormor. Men det skal allerede her nævnes, at han i 1866 overtog forældrenes øster Laden i Langholt nede ved Limfjorden på det område, hvor nu Nordjyllandsværket ligger. Stuehuset findes endnu, men er også på vej til at blive opslugt af værket. I morfars tid var der mørkt på området ved nattetid, og kaptajnen på den daværende båd mellem København og Aalborg havde derfor en aftale med morfar om, at han skulle stille en lygte ud ved vandet, så båden havde den at styre efter.

Morfar Thomas Jensen, 26.4.1837-13.10.1910
og
Mormor Laura Kathrine Spliid, 2.12.1849-10.5.1898 blev gift 11.6.1875, da han var 38 og hun 26 år. De fik syv børn, men de har ikke haft det let. Fire af børnene døde som små - to af dem endda næsten samtidig og vistnok af difteritis. Børnene var:

Laurits Bjørn Spliid Jensen, f.31.7.1876, d.25.1.1941
Jens Christian Jensen, f.25.8.1878, d.23.5.1880
Ane Johanne Jensen, f.28.3.1880, d.26.10.1961
Jenny Christine Jensen, f.29.5.1881, d.19.4.1884
Jens Christian Jensen, f.9.11.1883, d.11.4.1884
Johan Christian Jensen, f.16.8.1885, d.14.1.1886
Jens Jensen, f.19.6.1887

Foruden min mor levede således kun brødrene Laurits og Jens. Og .disse tre søskende mistede tilmed deres mor, da de var henholdsvis 21, 18 og 10 år. Hun blev kun 48 år. Morfar kom til at bo det meste af sit liv på Øster Laden, som han flyttede til med sine forældre, da han var 15 år, som han selv overtog, da han var 26, og som var hans hjem, til han døde 73 år gl. i 1910.

Thomas Jensen was my grandfather. We shall in the following chapter hear about his siblings, and we naturally later hear about his marriage to my grandmother. But it has already been mentioned that in 1866 he took over his parental farm Øster Laden in Langholt down by the fjord in the area where now North Jutland Electrical Plant is located. The farmhouse is still there [1997], but is on its way to being absorbed by the [power] plant. In my grandfather's time it was dark in that area at night, and the captain of the boat, which at that time traveled between Copenhagen and Aalborg, had an agreement with grandfather that he should put a lamp out by the water so the boat had a light to steer by.

Grandfather Thomas Jensen, 26.4.1837-13.10.1910
and
Grandmother Laura Kathrine Spliid, 2.12.1849-10.5.1898 married June11, 1875, when he was 38 and she 26 years. They had seven children, but they did not have it easy as four of the children died in infancy - two of them nearly at the same time, probably of diphtheria. The children were:

Laurits Bjørn Spliid Jensen,b.31.7.1876 , d.25.1.1941
Jens Christian Jensen, b.25.8.1878 , d.23.5.1880

Johan Christian Jensen, b.16.8.1885 , d.14.1.1886
Jens Jensen, b.19.6.1887

In addition to my mother only her brothers Laurits and Jens lived past childhood, and then these three siblings lost their mother when they were 21, 18 and 10. She was only 48 years old when she died. Grandpa lived most of his life on Øster Laden, a farm he had moved to with his parents when he was 15, and which he took over when he was 26, and that became his home until he died in 1910 at the age of 73.

Thomas married Laura Kathrine Spliid on 11 Jun 1875 in Danmark. Laura (daughter of Laurits Bjørn Spliid and Johanne Kirstine Pedersdatter) was born on 02 Dec 1849 in Danmark; died on 10 May 1898 in Vester Hassing, Vester Hassing Sogn, Aalborg Amt, Danmark; was buried on 14 May 1898 in Kirkegård, Vester Hassing, Vester Hassing Sogn, Aalborg Amt, Danmark.

Laurits Bjørn Spliid, 31.7.1812-4.12.1895 blev min oldefar. Ligesom sine søskende fulgte han ikke traditionen op og blev præst, men valgte at blive gårdejer i V. Hassing. Han blev 30 år gl. gift med den tre år yngre Johanne Kirstine Pedersdatter, 23.12.1815-29.6.1892 som var datter af en anden gårdejer i V. Hassing. Han slægtede heller ikke sin far på med hensyn til børnerigdom, idet de kun fik to børn:

Thomas Peter Lauridsen Spliid, f.1843, d.1915
Laura Kathrine Spliid, f.2.12.1849, d.10.5.1898

Laura Kathrine blev min mormor.

Laurits Bjørn Spliid, 31.7.1812-4.12.1895 was my great-grandfather. Like his siblings, he did not follow the ancestral practice of becoming a pastor, but chose instead to become a farmer in V. Hassing. He was 30 years old when he married the three year younger Johanne Kirstine Pedersdatter, 23.12.1815-29.6.1892, daughter of another farmer in V. Hassing. He also did not follow his ancestral practice of having a wealth of children as they only had two, they were:

Thomas Peter Lauridsen Spliid, f.1843, d.1915
Laura Kathrine Spliid, f.2.12.1849, d.10.5.1898

Laura Kathrine was my grandmother.

Notes:

Anders Jensen 1763 – 1829 boede først i København, men i 1805 købte han Holtet af sin ældre bror og flyttede tilbage dertil. Han var gift med Mette Mortensdatter ca.1765 – 1816 og fik med hende fem børn:

Jens Christian Andersen, f.23.3.1799 i Kbh., d.13.11.1876
Martin Frederik Andersen, f.ca.1801 i Kbh.
Christiane Andersen, f.27.10.1805
Kirsten Andersen, f.17.3.1807, d.før 1816
Mads Peder Andersen, f.24.2.1811

Da Mette døde i 1816, var det mindste barn kun fem år, og Anders giftede sig igen. Vi får lidt af et tidsbillede, når vi ser på den udførlige bo-opgørelse, som blev foretaget ved hendes død. Der var bilæggerovn, spinderok og væv. Der var kobber- og messing­ ting, fade af tin og tallerkener af tin eller stentøj, mens kun tekopper var af porcelæn. Hun havde brugt fiskebens snøreliv, og til fint brug havde hun haft en blå atlaskes pels med hue. - Også inventar, landbrugsredskaber og dyr blev opregnet i boet, som alt i alt blev opgjort til knapt 2300 rigsdaler.

Anders Jensens anden kone var Margrethe Pedersdatter 1765 - 18?? Hun var altså jævnaldrende med hans første kone og var ligesom Anders i 50'erne, da de blev gift. De fik da heller ingen fælles børn. I 1829 overgik Holtet til den ældste af sønnerne, og der blev oprettet en aftægtskontrakt, hvor det nøje blev bestemt, hvor meget korn, flæsk, kød, mælk, ost og brændevin sønnen skulle give Anders og Margrethe om året. Anders døde samme år. Hvor længe Margrethe levede, vides ikke.

Andres Jensen 1763 – 1829 first lived in Copenhagen , but in 1805 he bought the farm, Holtet from his older brother and moved back there. He was married Mette Mortensdatter ca.1765 – 1816 and had with her five children :

Jens Christian Andersen, b.23.3.1799 in Copenhagen, d.13.11.1876
Martin Frederik Andersen, b.ca.1801 in Copenhagen
Christiane Andersen, b.27.10.1805
Kirsten Andersen, b.17.3.1807, d. before 1816
Mads Peder Andersen, b.24.2.1811

When Mette died in 1816, the youngest child was only five years and Anders remarried. We get a bit of the history, when we look at the detailed housing inventory that was made upon her death. There was an oven, spinning wheel and tissues. There were copper and brass items, dishes of pewter and pewter plates, stoneware, while only teacups were porcelain. She had used a fishbone corset for fine use, she had a blue satin coat and hat. Also furniture, farm implements and animals were listed in the estate , which all in all was estimated at just under 2300 rigsdaler .

Andres Jensen's second wife was Margrethe Pedersdatter 1765-18 ?. She was the same age as his first wife and was like Anders in her 50s when they were married. They were then no children. In 1829 they passed the farm, Holtet to the eldest son, and the creation of a contract carefully determined how much cereal, bacon, meat, milk, cheese and brandy the son should give Anders and Margaret each year. Anders died the same year. How long Margrethe lived is not known.

Anders married Mette MortensdatterDanmark. Mette was born in 1765; died in 1816 in Holtet, Øster Hassing Sogn, Aalborg Amt, Danmark. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Laurits Bjørn Spliid, 31.1.1770-3.8.1845: He resumed the tradition and in 1792 became the Vicar of Horsens-Hammer and 1830 in V. Hassing , where he also was konsistorialråd (an achievement title given to Vicars). On his 23th birthday, he married with six year older grocer's daughter from Aalborg

Nille Marie Sørensdatter Haaslund, 15.7.1764-25.10.1800, and they had four daughters and two sons. When they had been married for almost seven years and the youngest child was not yet been one year old, Nille Marie died at the age of 36. The following year Laurits married again.
