Is there anyone who can help research my Danish ancestors? My grandfather, Carl Larsen (Pedersen) was born on July 31, 1870 and emigrated to American in the 1890's. His parents were Lars Christian Pedersen, born May 30, 1826 in Bjergby, Viborg, Denmark and Kirsten(Christine) Marie Jensdatter, born August 3, 1824 in Sundby, Thisted, Denmark. They had 6 children with Carl being the youngest. A sister, Else Marie, (b. Oct. 20, 1857; d. Aug., 1942) and a brother Peter Larsen (b. June 27, 1856; d. May 2, 1919) also emigrated to American and I understand they came before Carl. I would like to know the birth and death dates of those remaining in Denmark; namely Poul Pedersen, Jens Pedersen and Soren Pedersenand perhaps their families I also have info that says they were from Sundby, Isle of Mors, Denmark. Is it possible to find the emigration date for Carl and the name of the ship. I would like this info to add to my family tree. Thank you!
