Marriage:

Aarhus, Aarhus, Denmark
Notes:
                       Martinus and Anna were sealed by their Granddaughter Vaniece Peterson
    Sprague and her husband Morley Sprague in the Jorden River Temple.
    Vaniece submitted their names in June of 1988 and it took a long time
    for them to be cleared.  The date of their sealing was 17 January, 1989.
    It was a very exciting day for Vaniece, and made her feel very, very
    happy.
    My mother told me that Martinus was a wonderful father.  He was a
    Longshoreman by trade and earned a very good salery.  Money was not a
    problem.  When he and my grandmother, Anna would go out for the evening
    at least one hundred dollers ( or the equivalent in Danish money ) was
    taken and spent.  Martinus had beautiful eyes that were so dark that you
    could not tell where the pupil began, and they were kind and loving.  My
    mother (Ruth) adored her father.

Notes:
                       Vaniece and her family only met Grandmother (Bestamor) once when Bestamore
    and her second husband, Anders Jensen came to America in 1973 to meet Vaniece's
    mother's new husband, Wells Martin shorley after their marriage.
    They spent a couple of weeks at Mom's place.  Bestamor taught me how to
    needlepoint.  I could not speek to her in her Danish language because
    I was never taught my mother's native language, but I comunicated in sign
    language and love.  I'm so glad that I could meet her at least once
    before she passed away.

    THIS IS MY WONDERFUL MOTHER WHO I LOVED VERY MUCH.  I HOPE SHE WILL BE
    HAPPY WITH ME IN TRYING TO DO MORE ON THE GENEALOGY THAT SHE STARTED.
    WE WENT AS A FAMILY TO THE TEMPLE JULY 27, 1989 AND SEALED MOTHER TO HER
    PARENTS.  RUTHANN WAS ANNA MARGRETHE ELISABET ANDERSEN, HENRY WAS MARTINUS
    NIELSEN AND I WAS STELLA RUTH NEILSEN.  IT WAS A VERY HARD NIGHT. IT SEEMED
    THAT EVERYTHING WENT WRONG.  FIRST WHEN I SENT THE NAMES THROUGH FAMILY
    HISTORY, THEY SENT IT BACK SAYING MY MOTHER HAD BEEN BORN IN THE COVENANT,
    WHICH WAS NOT TRUE.  I WENT DOWN TOWN TO THE CHURCH HISTORY OFFICE AND
    TRIED TO CLEAR UP THE MISTAKE, BUT GOT THERE A FEW MINUTES AFTER THE
    DEPARTMENT CLOSED FOR THE EVENING SO I LEFT WORD, COPIES OF THE ERROR AND
    MY NAME AND PHONE NUMBER.  THAT WAS ON A FRIDAY.  THE NEXT TUESDAY I RETURNED
    THE CALL AND THE LADY THEY SAID WOULD HELP ME KNEW NOTHING ABOUT THE PROBLEM.
    AN HOUR LATER ANOTHER SISTER CALLED, (NELL).  SHE WAS GREAT, IN THE NEXT FEW
    DAYS, I SPOKE WITH HER THREE TIMES, AND SHE TOLD ME WHAT TO TAKE TO THE \
    TEMPLE WITH ME TO HELP IT BE CLEARED.

    ESTHER DIED JUST AFTER THE WAR ENDED.  GRANDMOTHER ANNA SENT ME TWO NECKLASES
    THAT BELONGED TO ESTHER.  I REMEMBER THE DAY THEY ARRIVED.  MY MOTHER JUST
    CRIED AND CRIED.  I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE SHE WANTED THE NECKLASES SO I
    GAVE THEM TO HER.  SHE JUST HUGGED ME AND SAID "NO, THANK YOU HONEY, THATS
    NOT WHY I AM CRYING.  IM CRYING BECAUSE THEY BELONGED TO MY SWEET, BEAUTIFUL
    SISTER ESTHER.  PLEASE WEAR THEM AND ENJOY THEM."
    ON JULY 27, 1989 ESTHER WAS SEALED TO HER PARENTS.
