Christian
Mommsen LERCHE (b. 1838-09-17 in Süderlügum)

He went with his
older children to America. His wife Catharina Maria (nee HANSEN
- see photo on the left) planned to catch up later. But unfortunately
he died 1890 by a train accident in the US, so his wife stayed on
the farm, while half of their children are trying to find their
happiness in America.
Catharina Maria was a daughter to the colonist Bennet HANSEN, who was a very special and unique ancestor of mine. |
