My, I feel VERY close to their family, therefore, very close to you. Look forward to exchanging information. I send an email reply! ;-)Dr. Bill (William L.)

It turns out that we are related, albeit distantly. I am a descendant of Lauritz & Jensine Sorensen, continuing through Louise and Rasmus Nielsen. I am having a hard time finding any information about Lauritz or Jensine's parents and was wondering if you have any of that information. I would love it if you could email me, and we can share whatever information we have. I am so excited about this!!!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17706190840607574368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5792182418688329417.post-33098423446265840962009-12-19T21:29:09.411-06:002009-12-19T21:29:09.411-06:00Small world, huh?

I had a great uncle Lauritz Hansen and he died at age 4 days, but later the family named another child Lauritz Theodore Hansen and I wondered where Theodore came from.Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15311523372083088677noreply@blogger.com
