Note:
1. Generations 6 through 16 can be found and are linked to our family tree on the Internet site FamilySearch.org; however, there are several warning notes about inaccuracies, such as a 200-year difference in the birth of children to certain parents, so I chose not to include those generations here until the problems can be solved. Pedigree charts collapse and are diamond shaped rather than a never-ending spread outward; therefore, it was not a surprise to find the Koeller (Kjøller) and Kofoed families re-connecting around the year 1520. The earliest date on the disputed Family Tree portion of FamilySearch.org for Hansine’s maternal line is 1301. It should also be noted that dates prior to about 1520 are suspect since the church kept vital records and reliable record keeping started following the Reformation.
