Immigrants to Minnesota, USA, from Denmark

The following 3 Danish emigrants are found:

  • Niels Revsbech born in Denmark 11. oct. 1897, living in Burnsville, Dakota, US MN in 1930. Married with Karen, they have 2 children a daughter and a son.
  • Peter Revsbech born in Denmar abt. 1894, arrived to USA 21. mar. 1911, married in 1936 and living in Hennepin, US MN.
  • Anton Revsbech born in Denmark 28. sep 1891, living in Hennepin, US MN in 1930, married with Martha - they have one son.
I am in contact with the Revsbech family in Minnesota and hope to find out if this family are descendants to some or all of the above mentioned. Meanwhile I will continue my research of the danish ancestors to the 3 men listed above.

Ancestry of Anton Revsbech
This ancestry is not yet fully verified, but I am pretty sure it is correct.

New genealogical table published



I have updated the genealogic table for my family. You can find an overview in pdf format and a more detailed in html format. Unfourtenately the html version is written in danish - I am planning to set up a version translated to english in near future.

I am now retired, so don't hesitate to contact me if you are living in USA and your family name is Refsbech/Revsbech/Revsbæk - it is the same family - it's just the reverends who first wanted to turn everything to german and later - after 1864 - wanted to turn everything back to danish.

I know some of my ancestors emigtaed to Minnesota in USA early 1900 years.

Our first registered ancestor is born in 1666.
