Nissen in Denmark or Germany

texray50 — 23 Feb 2008 10:21:50 GMT

To Whom It May Concern,
I am looking for my GGrandfather Nicolaus Nissen who was born in Clansbiehl parish/county? in Tondern District in S-H on 11 December 1846. He migrated to Lake Charles, Louisiana, USA on 23 April 1882? He is listed on the 1880 US census. He married Christina Barbara Blanz on 04 April 1883. She was born on 02 September 1862 and died in childbirth on 02 June 1890.

I have more information after he came here but do not have the date of his death. I think it was 1928. I seem to reach a dead end whe I try to go backward. Could our name have gotten changed along the way?

Do you have ANY information about him there and about his family tree who probably stayed there? I would appreciate any information such as why he left (if known), what his full name may have been, any records about him and the family, and if he was ever in the military there. I know there were a lot of wars going on during that time. Maybe that is why he left (I don't blame him if he did).

I know he had a brother who came here with him but the brother supposedly stayed in Chicago and he came to Lake Charles. Family story is that he told his brother "If I wanted to stay in the cold weather I would not have left Germany". It is apparant that the area probably still belonged to Denmark when he was born.

Thank you very much,
Ray Nissen

Katharina Metta Nissen b. Sept 1855.
I am trying to find any one who may be related to this woman. Katharina is my GrGrandmother. She married Gustav Haverbeck in Stamford Ct. in 1880.

This is important to me because there is a hereditory factor here. Katharina (Catherine) had CMT (Charcot Maria Tooth Syndrome). This Syndrome is indigenous to the "low countries, Northern Germany, Denmark, The Netherlands, and parts of Italy This is a form of dystrophy that attacks the extremities, arms, hands, legs and feet. This disease has come down through the family attacking at least 4 or more.

I would like to be able to contact any of the Nissen Family who carry this Syndrome

Barbara Felder — 21 Jan 2006 6:27:05 GMT

Does anyone have these names in their Nissen ancestors?:
Jens, Jes, Anne Sophie, or Jacob

They are siblings of my Jorgen and Peter Nissen of Hoptrup Denmark. They were born approx. in the 1840's and or 1850's. The Danish records have no death dates for them, so it's likely they came to America. Their parents were Nis Nissen and Anne Marie Jessen.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Looking for Nissen's from Ireland or Scotland

deann89 — 30 Dec 2001 6:30:51 GMT

My father was Elmer Nissen. He passed away in Washington State in the mid 1980's or early 1990's(sometime before 1992). I know he lived in Kalispell, Montana in 1959 and 1960.He would have been in his late 40's to mid 50's at that time. His parents were both still living at that time also and they lived in the Seattle Washington area. He had one brother that died when he was very young. I believe his mother's maiden name was also Nisson or Nison. I have been told they originally lived in Nebraska for awhile before moving to Washington State. I have also been told that this Nissen family came from Ireland or Scotland. Any more information out there would be wonderful. I am searching for a needle in a haystack at this point in time! Thanks so much:)De

loriwidger — 14 May 2004 12:03:25 GMT

After talking to my grandmother and showing her these messages, she does not think we have the same "Nickels," but can't be sure. She did say the parents went back to Germany after being in the US for a while because the children became "too wild" in America. I don't know who or how many of the children went back to Germany with them, but I think any that did probably emigrated on their own later as adults.

My great grandfather was born in 1846 in Glansbiehl, Tonder, S-H, North Germany. I have no information about his parents or family before he came to the USA. He is listed on the 1880 census in Louisiana and married a Christina (I apologize that I do not have her surname) and died about 1929. They had two children (Julius Henry and "Anna". Julius married Stella Irene Ray and they were the parents of my late father Ray A. Nissen, Sr. Please help me if you can.

I am looking for information on Elizabeth Nissen. I was told that she was born in San Francisco, CA. The only other information that I have to go on is that she had a daughter named Mary who married John Wilson. The Wilson's had at least one daughter, my gg grandmother. Her name was Helen Wilson, she was born in Jan. 1888. If anyone has any information on Elizabeth Nissen I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm also researching my Nissen family. The furthest back I can find is Paul Nissen b Germany and wife Maria Christensen b Germany. They had at least two children - Johannes and Chris(?)
Johannes was born 1865 in Schleswig-Holstein and came to the U.S. in 1881. I assume that Chris came at that time also. Johannes settled in Crawford and Carroll Counties in Iowa and farmed until his death 24 January 1919 in Manning, Iowa.

Looking for more info on Johannes and his parents/grandparents.
