Margrete Nielsdatter Djernes

Notes:

The Lild Parish Register shows Margrete was born at
Diernesgaard. She was evidently named for a sister who had
died earlier. She must also have died young, as she does not
appear in the 1787 census.

Notes:

Cai Mygind, in his book on Hanherred and Hillerslev Herred
families, page 43, says that Niels and Karen moved from the
family farm, Djernesgard, when their son Lars Nielsen Djernes
became owner of it upon his marriage in 1786. They purchased,
from Thoger Pedersen Buxhauge for 395 rix-dollars, another farm
called Myrup near the sea.
The 1787 census for N²rklitt, Lild, lists Niels Christian
??, 63, as a farmer, cottager and harbor fisherman with wife
Karen Pedersdatter, 57 and children Peder, 22; Lars Christian,
20; Niels, 18; and Anne, 15. Also in the household was servant
Kirsten Christensdatter.

Niels married Karen Pedersdatter in 1751 in Lild, Vester Han, Thisted, Denmark. Karen was born about 1730 in Denmark; died after 1801 in Denmark. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Karen Pedersdatter, 57, is listed with her husband and four
children in the 1787 census for N²rklit, Lild. In 1801 she is
listed there as a 71 year old widow in a household with son
Niels Nielsen, 32 and two servants.

Notes:

Cai Mygind, in his book on families from Hanherred and
Hillerslev Herred, page 43, says Peder and Margrethe became
owners of Djernesgard in1742.

Peder married Margrethe Nielsdatter Krarup in Denmark. Margrethe was born in in Denmark. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Cai Mygind, in his book on families from Hanherred and
Hillerslev Herred, page 43, says that Margrethe's family tree
goes back to Frands Jorgensen, who was head of the Metropolitan
Grammar School in Copenhagen about 1600.
