I am indebted to Anna Laursen and Birthe Laursen for the many beautiful photographs that they have sent me and all the fascinating information that they have told me.
This is a picture of the home of Ane Kirstine Andersdatter. She is the ancestor of Anna and Birthe. She is also the Aunt of Abelone.
