Thank you very much, Leif!

This increases my confidence that Peder (from Toflund) may be the same person as Peter (from Norwich, Connecticut). It may be that Peter's obituary misspelt 'Assens' as 'Assen'.

I know that he visited Denmark several times during the twentieth century. Perhaps the family moved to Assens from Odense sometime later?

Also, I suppose it is possible that he emigrated from Denmark before 1880, then returned only to emigrate to the U.S.again about 1885.

Btw. Peter had the following children in Norwich: Bessie, Marie, Anders, John and Selma. The names Marie and Anders also are names of other family members you listed in Fyn.

Ken
