Looking for my Great Grandfathers parents

[Brett Hansen]

Hello.  My great grandfather was named Klaus Peder Hansen.  He immigrated to the US in around 1902-1905 from Denmark.  He married Mette Marie Lundholm after he moved to Superior Wisconsin.  He changed his name to Peter Hansen in the US and Mette changed his name to Marie Hansen.  He was born in 1879 and died in 1947.  I would love to find out where he was born and who his parents were so I can trace my ancestry.  Thanks for any help!

Thank you very much for your responses!

Here as # 1 for 1836 is Niels Clausens marriage reflected in the 1840 census,  https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?epid=17121548#159895,26881031  He was a widower.  Thus far a search from 1789-1793  doesn't seem to show him baptized inAstrup.

Note that in the 1820 marriage two men from Scharup, rather than Astrup, attest to the grooms smallpox.

That is a sign that he is the 12 year old in the 1801 census.  In 1801, aged between 11 and 12.
