No record for "Kristina" has been found by that name (is it the missing child or
maybe Mette Catherine Holm, born in September 1864?) And the actual records show
that Birthe Holm, who died at birth in1871, would have been the 22nd child. Caroline
was born in March 1870 - she would have been the 21st child. I have a copy of an index card No. 61103 to the Arizona Temple of the Latter Day Saints Family History Center for: Holm, Karoline, born Mar 8, 1870 Vesterende, Ballum, Tonder, Denmark, m. Hans Christian Hansen, d. July 25, 1943. Father: Peter Andersen Holm; Mother: Anke Marie Lindberg. Heir: Hans ?anstel Nissen, nep il (maybe a nephew?) I have been unable to trace this data in any direction. From copies of theactual birth records for the parents: Peder Andersen Holm and Anke Marie Lindberg, the children are: Maren Holm, b. September 29, 1845, d. October 1, 1845 Maren Beyers Holm, b. September 29, 1845, d. October 6, 1845 (twins) Lars Willadsen Holm, b. November 5, 1846 Anders Jessen Holm, b. September 25, 1849 Jeppe Poulsen Holm, b. September 11, 1851, d. October 20, 1851 Marie Holm, b. September 8, 1852 Jeppe Poulsen Holm, b. April 26, 1855 Hans Schach Holm, b. January 4, 1857, d. January 4, 1857 Beyer Andersen Holm, b. January 4, 1857, d. January 4, 1857 (twins) Maren Beyer Holm, b. January 8, 1858 Hans Schach Holm, b. March 14, 1859 Petrea Holm, b. February 11, 1860 Anke Marie Holm, b. March 14, 1861 Peder Andersen Holm, b. April 25, 1862 Jes Andersen Holm, b. July 8, 1863 Mette Catherine Holm, b. September 7, 1864 Bothilde Holm, b.

Jutland, Denmark: Theodor Holm born July 2, 1868 in "Vesterende", Ballum, Tonder,

Germany - click to enlarge image) He was the son of a master smith and merchant,
Peder Andersen Holm and his wife Anke Marie Lindberg. He was baptized August 9, 1868. |
