Notes:

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.

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
Ane Johanne Jensen, b.28.3.1880 , d.26.10.1961
Jenny Christine Jensen, b.29.5.1881 , d.19.4.1884
Jens Christian Jensen, b.9.11.1883 , d.11.4.1884
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 East 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.

Laura married Thomas Jensen on 11 Jun 1875 in Danmark. Thomas (son of Jens Khristian Andersen and Ane Johanne Thomasdatter) was born on 26 Apr 1837 in Holtet, Øster Hassing Sogn, Aalborg Amt, Danmark; died on 13 Oct 1910 in Øster Laden, Langholt, Horsens Sogn, Aalborg Amt, Danmark; was buried on 16 Oct 1910 in Kirkegård, Vester Hassing, Vester Hassing Sogn, Aalborg Amt, Danmark.

Notes:

Vi er nu nået til min nærmeste familie, men selvom mine bedsteforældres ægteskaber har Været omtalt, kan det måske Være nyttigt at opsummere:

Farfar Lars Peter Eriksen, f.8.5.1840, d.26.1.1911, og farmor Inger Marie Ottosdatter, f.22.2.1843, d.13.8.1915, blev gift 1.12.1865. Farfar blev ejer af Hougaards Mølle i Vester Hassing. Af deres ti børn, hvoraf tre døde som små, var far Jens Eriksen nr. otte.

Morfar Thomas Jensen, f.26.4.1837, d.13.10.1910, og mormor Laura Kathrine Spliid, f.2.12.1849, d.10.5.1898, blev gift 11.6.1875. Også han var landmand og blev ejer af Øster Laden, Langholt. Af deres syv børn, hvoraf fire døde som små, var mor Ane Johanne Jensen nr. tre.

Far Jens Eriksen, f.27.5.1878, d.14.4.1960, og mor Ane Johanne Jensen f.28.3.1880, d.26.10.1961, blev gift 16.9.1902. Far var dyrlæge og praktiserede først i Gandrup, indtil han ved farfars død i 1911 overtog Hougaards Mølle og dermed blev både dyrlæge og landmand i V.Hassing. Da mine forældre rykkede ind i Møllen, havde de fået deres fire første børn, som fik glæde af farmor, der fortsat boede der til sin død i 1915. Siden kom de to sidste børn til – med mig som den yngste. Møllen er således mit barndomshjem, hvor jeg er vokset op sammen med mine fem ældre søskende. Det var et muntert og gæstfrit hjem, som ofte var samlingssted for den talstærke familie.

I 1948 solgte mine forældre Møllen til Marcus Kaasgaard, gift med farmors niece Anne Mette Ottosen, Krogaarden i V.Hassing. Derefter boede mine forældre i et hus i V.Hassing, som vi kaldte "Lille Møllen". Der døde min 'far 82 år gl., og der boede min mor fortsat til sin død 1.5 år senere.

Vi børn er:
Laura Kathrine Eriksen, f.10.7.1903
Inger Marie Eriksen, f.3.11.1904
Ottha Larsetty Eriksen, f. 31.8.1906
Knud Aage Eriksen, f.10.4.1910_, d.13.9.1969
Esther Margrethe Eriksen, f.15.5.1917
Lars Peter Eriksen, f.28.6.1919

We have now come to my immediate family, but even though my grandparents' marriage has been discussed, it might be useful to summarize:

Grandpa Lars Peter Eriksen, f.8.5.1840, d.26.1.1911 and Grandmother Inger Marie Ottosdatter, f.22.2.1843, d.13.8.1915, married 1/12/1865. Grandfather became the owner of the farm ‘Hougaard Mill’ in Vester Hassing. Of their ten children, three died young, and my father, Jens Eriksen was born No. eight.

Grandpa Thomas Jensen, f.26.4.1837, d.13.10.1910 and Grandmother Laura Kathrine Spliid, f.2.12.1849, d.10.5.1898, married 6/11/1875. He also was a farmer and became the owner of the farm Langholt in East Laden. Of their seven children, four died young, and mother, Ane Johanne Jensen was born third.

Father Jens Eriksen, f.27.5.1878, d.14.4.1960 and mother Ane Johanne Jensen f.28.3.1880, d.26.10.1961, married 9/16/1902. Dad was a veterinarian and practiced first in Gandrup until his grandfather's death in 1911 when he took over Hougaards Mill and thus was both a veterinarian and a farmer in V.Hassing. When my parents moved onto the farm, their first four children had the benefited of having their paternal grandmother living with them until her death in 1915. After that there were two other children - with me as the youngest. The Mill Farm was my home, where I grew up with my five older siblings. It was a cheerful and hospitable home, which was often a gathering place for our large family.

In 1948 my parents sold the farm to Marcus Kaasgaard, who was married to grandmother's niece Anne Mette Ottosen, from Krogaard farm in V.Hassing. Then my parents lived in a house in V.Hassing, which we called the "Little Mill". They died there; my father 82 years old, and my mother continued living there until her death 1.5 years later.

We children are:
Laura Kathrine Eriksen, f.10.7.1903
Inger Marie Eriksen, f.3.11.1904
Ottha Larsetty Eriksen, born 31.8.1906
Knud Aage Eriksen, f.10.4.1910, d.13.9.1969
Esther Margrethe Eriksen, f.15.5.1917
Lars Peter Eriksen, f.28.6.1919

Notes:

Jens Jensen 19.6.1887 - 19??; Onkel Jens var som sagt kun ti ar, da hans mor døde. I hans videre opvækst på Øster Laden deltog som nævnt foruden faderen - hans bror og svigerinde, men nok ikke så meget hans søster (min mor), for hun kom til Sjælland hos en lærerfamilie og blev senere mejerske på en gård i Vendsyssel inden sit ægteskab med min far.

Jens overtog Øster Laden i 1910 ved sin fars død, men solgte den kort efter og blev sognefoged og spare­kassedirektør i V. Hassing. Han blev gift to gange. Hans første kone Johanne Louise Kirstine Christensen 24.9.1894-19.2.1920 var datter af bagermester i V.Hassing. Hun var tyve år, da de blev gift i 1914, og døde efter kun seks års ægteskab.

I 1924, da datter Ellen Cathrine var 7 ar, giftede onkel Jens sig igen med Johanne Wrist 1.4.1903- 19??. Tante Johanne var kun 21, da hun blev stedmor til sin mands 7-årige datter Onkel Jens og tante Johanne fik yderligere tre børn:

Jens Jensen 06/19/1887 - 19??; Uncle Jens was as I said only ten years when his mother died. In regard to his further upbringing on the farm Øster Laden, as mentioned in addition to the father - he had his brother and sister-in-law, but probably not so much his sister (my mother), she went to Sjælland and lived with a teacher and his family and later was a dairy (butter) maid on a farm in Vendsyssel until her marriage to my father.

Jens took over the Øster Laden in 1910 at his father's death, but sold it shortly after and became the Reeve for the area as well as a bank director in V. Hassing. He was married twice. His first wife Johanne Louise Kirstine Christensen 24.9.1894-19.2.1920 was the daughter of master baker in V.Hassing. She was twenty years old when they married in 1914 and died after only six years of marriage.

In 1924, when daughter Ellen Cathrine was 7 years, Uncle Jens married Johanne Wrist 01.04.1903-19?. Aunt Johanna was just 21 when she became stepmother to her husband’s 7-year-old daughter. Uncle Jens and Aunt Johanna had three additional children:
