Sørensen in Amstrup, and then she returned to Danstruplundgaard, where she worked another two years. Next she went to Ringsted, and was a housekeeper for Chr. Mørk Hansen, after which she returned to Danstrup in May of 1904. Marriage Notes for JENS CHRISTENSEN and ANE MADSEN:
Around 1903 Jens married
Kirstine Madsen. The same year he was also the very first student at
Kærhave Farming School, which was opened in September of 1903.
Jens was a farmer, and in 1905 bought a farm in Hauge with about 14
acres of steril, emaciated soil, which became even more sparse due to
sandstorms in the spring, blowing away much of the seed. Jens planted
rows of trees to provide lee, and in the fall he sowed a kind of
grass, which was then plowed into the ground as a fertilizer,
improving the soil. Jens was also a fisherman, milk man, bringing out
the milk with horse and wagon, he kept hogs and for some time bulls,
and he went to other farms to spray their fruit trees with pesticide.
Kirstine worked in the Housekeeping Association, teaching cooking and
canning classes in the evening. Both Jens and Kirstine were
politically active in the constituency and members of the temperance
society, where Kirstine was part of the amateur theatre group,
usually playing the mature woman. In 1908 Jens was one of the
founding members of the Gjellerup Smallholder's Association. Jens and
Kirstine had 8 children, Martha Christensen, born 25 September 1904,
Søren Christensen, born 19 August 1906, Jensine Christensen,
born 24 January 1910, Arne Christensen, born 9 September 1911, Svend
Aage Christensen, born in 1912, Esther Christensen, born 29 January
1917, Eli Christensen, born around 1919 or 1920, and Svend Aage
Christensen, born 26 March 1925. In 1924 Jens bought about 5.5 acres
of land in Fønnersbæk, Ikast Parish, alongside the
river, and they had to drive the haywagon across the heather along
sandy wheel tracks, causing the haywagon to tip over occasionally. In
1925 Jens was the last president of Hammerum Temperance Society,
which was dissolved that year. In 1932 Jens bought about 32.5 acres
of land north of the farm house from John Pedersen. In spring of 1934
Jens had asked his thirteen-year-old son, Svend Aage, to fire up
under the copper in the stable, where they boiled potatos for the
hogs. Svend Aage put a lot of pine twigs on the fire, and suddenly
flames shot up towards the ceiling, where it caught some straw that
was stuck in spiderswebs between the rafters. The building burned
down to the ground within an hour, as the fire was fed by a strong
wind, and they were unable to get out any of the animals. The cows
were lowing frantically and the hogs were squeeling, as they died in
the fire. They were later buried in a mass grave southeast of the
farm, where their bones were found in 1983 during a sewer excavation.
After the fire the family had nothing but the clothes on their backs,
an old desk, Jens' book collection, and a few sentimental items,
photos etc. It became a diffictult summer. At first the family had to
live in the gym of the local elementary school, after which they
moved into the attic over Jens' son Søren's house. Jens had
underinsured the farm, and to make matters worse he was fined for
allowing a thirteen-year-old boy to mind the fire. Jens handled that
part of the hardship by going to jail for 8 days in exchange for
having the fine lifted, and he would later always say that it was the
most money he ever made in a week. Still, because the property was
underinsured, and an extra 1000 kr. ($150) deductable was imposed
because of a minor being at fault, the family had to turn every penny
and do most of the reconstruction themselves. Arne, who had already
left home, came back that summer to help rebuild the farm. They
cleaned up, molded bricks, cleaned off old bricks, poured a
foundation, and built walls. Søren helped with the woodwork,
and they got lumber from the woods. Eventually the building was reconstructed. Notes for JAKOBA MARIE MEEDOM: Marie worked as a live-in housekeeper in a number of places, among others in Aulum. Later she moved to Holstebro, where she ran an ironing/pressing business. In 1882 Marie celebrated her 100th birthday at Lindegården. 5 December 1983 Marie died at Lindegården in Herning, Hammerum Herred, Ringkøbing County, Jylland, Denmark. She was just short of her 102nd birthday, and she was the oldest resident of the county. 9 December 1983 at 1:00 pm Marie was buried in Hammerum Kirkegård, Hammerum Herred, Ringkøbing County, Jylland, Denmark. Marriage Notes for JENS CHRISTENSEN and JAKOBA MEEDOM: One day in 1940 Jens told his children that he was going on a trip for a few days, and when they asked him where he was going he responded that he was going to Vind to see some relatives. When he came home a few days later, however, he revealed that he had been to Holstebro to visit a woman named Marie Meedom, and he wanted to know what they would think about him getting married again. The children were shocked, but approved as long as Jens would be happy, and soon he and Marie were married and built a house, and Jens was healthier and happier than he had been in a long time. In the 1960's Marie and Jens moved to a Nursinghome "De Gamles Hjem" in Herning, Hammerum Herred, Ringkøbing County, Jylland, Denmark. 30 June 1968 Jens died in Herning, Hammerum Herred, Ringkøbing County, Jylland, Denmark. After his death Marie moved to Lindegården, another nursinghome in Herning. Children of JENS CHRISTENSEN and ANE MADSEN are: 27. i.
