Hello,

I have been trying to find my relatives, but have had no luck, so I thought I would give this a try!

The parents names were:

Hans C. and Marie Andersen

Daughters:

Sophia, Anna, Emily

Sophia had a daughter Ena Lanford Jensen, who had four children;

Annie

Flemming - must be around 60 years old now

Kurt

Pia - should be 52

Anna had a daughter named Bente Westergaard Hansen, as far as I know she had one daughter Tina

Emily had one daughter Jane Murray

I am trying to find Flemming, Kurt, Pia, Bente, Ena or Tina. These are the people my family wrote to up to the mid 1980's.

I don't even know what city they all live in.

I would appreciate any help in locating these relatives.

I can be reached at dbaker12834@gmail.com

Thanks!!!

Hello,

I did the same thing a few months ago, and had some great results from the people on this site. The more information that you can provide the better...You stated that your family wrote to them back in the 80's if you had an old envelope with the address's that would be great ( sounds stupid but you would be suprised what you forget too write even if you are thinking it )... Also with the help of the Dane (3rd from the left) I found out alot of Dane's use facebook.

This is what I did (but I also had an old photo) I did a search on facebook for the family name. Wrote a short explanation of what I was looking for, starting off with an apologize for bothering them if they where not related and sent it off to all the people that I found... Guess what I received 3 responses, I now have (1) 4th cousin and (2) 5th cousins.

btw--going to Copenhagen in 2 more days, I can't wait.....

Good luck on your search!

Mike
