Confusing is one way to put it... It has been a very long standing family joke that Johan Rasmussens   and Ane Jorgensen children were cousins and step sibblings as well.... This was written by the children themselves... And now nearly everyone that that I could ask about this is  dead....  My brother has the old family bible..I will have to have him take pictures of whats written in it and post my findings..

AND... a 3rd. child for John Rasmussen ??? Christian Anton Rasmussen 2 Feb. , 1878 Utterslev... NEVER heard of him.. Guess he stayed in Denmark with his mother.. Gee. these dates sure are closing in on the time Johan left for America... wondering if he even divorced his wife before leaving..

Bjarne Due Pedersen

Christian Anton Rasmussen died 26. dec. 1880 in Utterslev.
Johan was emigrated at that date.

Hi there,

Sandi is my second great aunt's husband's first cousin twice removed.

I can help shed some light on the Wolff family if you all need it.  I believe I met Bjarne on MyHeritage, so we are slightly acquainted.

Fritz Wilheim Wolff was born on November 30th, 1868 in Nakskov, on the island of Lolland, in Denmark to John/Johann Wolff and Dorothea Anna Jensen.  On August 7th, 1897, he married my great great grandaunt, Jennie Mason, born Jennie Rasmussen.  Together, they had six kids:  Ruth Marie Wolff, Earl Mason Wolff, Rachel Doris Wolff, Mabel Caroline Wolff, Braden Edward Wolff, and George Edwin Wolff.

All of Fritz and Jennie's children are now deceased, so listing their names on here should be acceptable.  Ruth Marie was born on June 19th, 1898 in Brooklyn, Green, Wisconsin, USA.  She ended up marrying a man by the name of Kennard K Roberts in 1917.  Together, they had two children, both of whom I believe are still living.  If you would like to find out who they are, please visit my tree on Ancestry or MyHeritage.  I will give you a link per request.

Earl Mason was born on December 21st, 1899 in Brooklyn, Green, Wisconsin, USA.  He later married a girl named Grace.  Not sure of the last name quite yet.  Together, they had three kids.

Now, here comes my favorite part of the Wolff family tree.  Rachel Doris was born on February 5th, 1902 in Brooklyn, Green, Wisconsin, USA.  She lived with her widowed mother and three younger siblings in the 1920 U.S. Census in Union, Rock, Wisconsin, USA.  On June 16th, 1924, she married William S Riley at the Saint Paul's Catholic Church in Evansville, Rock, Wisconsin, USA.  She ended up giving birth to four children, two of which are now deceased (William R Riley and Doris Riley).  The youngest daughter ended up marrying Oscar Jerald "Bo" Quaerna, who ended up passing away in 2001.  Together they had four kids.  One of the children ended up getting married and had two children of his own with his wife.  His daughter would be my fourth cousin.  Funny enough, I didn't even know that I was related to her until I did this extensive research in the Wolff family, and I was very surprised when I found out I was related to her, for she was actually the co-valedictorian of my class!  Besides the Quaernas, the other surnames to branch off from the Riley/Wolff tree would be Fredricks, Riley of course, and DeWitt.  Message me for more information on these descendants!

Mabel Caroline was born on August 24th, 1904 in Janesville, Rock, Wisconsin, USA.  She ended up marrying Walter H Schiefelbein in 1924.  Together, they had at least two kids.

Braden Edward was born on August 28th, 1906 in Brooklyn, Green, Wisconsin, USA.  He ended up marrying a Jerdis R.  Not sure of her last name, but he had one child with her.  Before that marriage, he was married to a woman by  the name of Molle.  Again, not sure of the last name, but they had two kids.

Finally, George Edwin was born on April 19th, 1908 in Brooklyn, Green, Wisconsin, USA.  He ended up marrying a woman named Alice D Gilbertson.  Together, they had at least one child.

Well, not sure how much help that was, but there you are.

Anything else I can do for you all, just let me know.  Nice meeting you fellow distant relatives.  :)

Regards,
Jacob

Thank You Jacob... Funny thing about his "Mason Family Tree" He messaged me some time ago about a "family connection" well I found it right away with Dorothea Ane Jensen whos' son Fritz Wolff married Jenny Mason..This is My Mothers side of the family. But somehow we stayed alittle off track  til I realized he was talking of the connection between my Fathers side of the family.. My Father had a Great Uncle Henery Jensen (My Dads  Grandmother , Anna Jensen Olsons brother) well Henerys daughter , Maria Christine Jensen (born Jan. 1876 in Denmark) married Marcelius L. Mason who was born 1870 in Denmark... They married in Wisconsin.. Marcelius was the son of Rasmus Christian Mason and Caroline Kirstine Christiansdatter...
So , Jacobs tree and mine have crossed at least twice..

Bjarne Due Pedersen

I am still here - I can see a big job, to get all this people in the big Due-family tree at my homepage  :D

Any informations about birth/christening, marriage, death and burial, with birthnames, dates and places are very welcome.

You can use my mail, to the left  ;)

I have a genealogy-project, to track and trace every Due from Lolland, but this is great, as it´s my own family from our xx great grandfather  :)

Jim Knudsen

Sandi I wonder if Grayling is the city in Michigan?  Seems alot of the Danes came to Michigan and Wisconsin and Minnesota, staying to the northern climates similar to Denmark?

http://www.cityofgrayling.org/

My Knudsen family goes back to Nakskov and Copenhagen in the 1800's. We are a family of 7 siblings all over the U.S.A. hope to connect with other family around the world.

Bjarne Due Pedersen

I think so, if you look at the end of their information, there is some about a friend Thorv. Hansen, in Grayling, Mich. ?

Carrie Ann Quaerna Nottingham

Hello!  I am one of Rachel Wolff Riley's granddaughters!  Great granddaughter of Jennie Mason :)

My mother, Sharon Ann Riley Quaerna was the fourth child of Rachel Doris Wolff Riley and William S. Riley.  She is 75 years old now, and the only remaining child of Rachel "Rae" and William Riley.  The oldest child, Patricia Mary Riley Fredricks passed away February 13th, 2016. She joined her brother William and sister Doris who are also deceased. To clarify, my mother Sharon, had 3 children with Oscar Jerald "Bo" Quaerna. I am the oldest, Carrie Ann, then Jerald Oscar, then Joseph Thomas.  My parents did divorce, and each had one other child from their second marriages, to make "4" each ;)

Rachel lived to be 102 years old!  Passing away in 2004.  Wow!

On my father's side, his mother's maiden name is Hess, who came from Norway and settled in the Rock County WI area as well, same as the Wolffs!  In the very tiny town are know as Magnolia, very near the Evansville/Brooklyn area where my grandmother Rae grew up. Both of my grandmothers ended up spending the majority and remaining years of their lives in Janesville WI.

I had never met Great-grandma Jennie. I do know that Grandma Riley did stay close with her siblings, and my mother with her cousins, but most are deceased now. 

Thank you Jacob for all of your information!  I had been recently looking for MY SON JACOB, to fill in his family tree!!!

God bless you all!  I pray and hope you know the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour!  None of this matters unless we see each other in eternity in Heaven.  XOXOX

Carrie Ann


Jacob Taylor Mason

Sandi,

Of course.

Carrie,

Of course.  Thank you for all of the information you shared.

Jacob
