Jens NIELSEN

                   Mette Kirstine was first engaged to marry Mads Nielsen, a man of small means, when he suddenly died before they could marry.  They were trying to save enough money to marry.  They had one child, Karen Kirstine.  She then met Gotfred Christophersen, who left her after fathering her son, Jens.  Next she met a kind, well to do, widowed neighbor, who wanted to marry her and care for her children.  She married him, and all the children, including Jens Gottfredson and Karen Kirstine Madsen should be included in the family and sealed to Anders Thomasen.  The request in FamilyTree.org is the following: Do not carry Jens Gottfredson line through other people.  His mother married Anders Thomasen.
