Christine Jørgensen & Eric Thuesen Family emigrated to America
Christine Joergensen sister to my grand father Jørgen Jørgensen, immigrated to America in may 1884, she crossed the Atlantic Ocean be ship. She came to Cedar Falls Iowa where many Danish emigrants lived. 

The Danes’ prime motives to leave their homeland were poor economic conditions and the war with the German States of Prussia and Austria in 1864. This resulted in Danish monarchial provinces Schleswig and Holstein becoming German territory.

Johanne Jørgensen & James Johnsen Family emigrated to America
Johanne Cathrine Jørgensen sister to Christine Jørgensen also immigrated to America but first in 1888 to Iowa in the same town as her sister Christine. She found work in the area and then married Ole Jensen Johnson. They lived on a farm one and a half miles north of Fredsville.

It was a great consolation for the two sisters to live so close to each other as they never saw their family and homeland in Denmark again.
