Jacob Emil Sorensen, Aalborg, Denmark
I am searching for my grandparents family. Jacob Emil (born in 1882) married Bertha Jensen (born in 1887) in or about 1905. They immigrated to Minnesota in 1912 & 1913. At the time they had three children. Christina who was about 6, stayed in Denmark. Lilly Metta Marie was 4 and Gudrun Elvilda was 2.They moved to Michigan and then to Dallas, Texas after the Depression.Their other children were Raymond, Stanley, Sonny, Pearl, Esther, Carmen, Richard, Mildred and Peter. My Uncle Peter was named after his uncle Peter Christian Sorensen. I do know that Jacob Sorensen also had another brother named Axel Sorensen from the Aalborg area. Jacob Emil died in 1954 and Bertha Sorensen died in 1956. Christina married a Christensen and lived out her life in Denmark around the Randers area. She had 8 children I beleive. Any further information about my family would be very helpful! My mother (Mildred Sanborn) has told me that there was very little talk about Denmark or family still over there.
