Looking for Bentsen's or Bennedsen's from Ribe, Denmark...

Trying to help my husband find his roots in Denmark. His Grandfather was Laurits/Lawrance Pederson/Petersen Bentsen who was born in 1849 in Demark and died in 1901. He married Mary Mantalina/Matilda Gray on February 27, 1890 possibly in TX. My husband thinks his Great Grandfather was a Bennedsen, but haven't found that surname anywhere in Denmark yet. I did find a site that lists a "Son Bentsen" and a "Boy Bentsen" who were probably twins as they were born in 1849 in Ribe, Denmark. I'm GUESSING that one of these was his Grandfather. He does not know any names of his Grandfather's siblings..How to I go past this point to find out for sure one way or the other...?
