Annie,

How can I thank you.

This is good news, in fact great news.

It confirms that this Peter Frederick Petersen is my Great Grandfather.
I can now release the information I have to the people that have been in contact with me from the Faroe Islands.

Is'nt it funny for years I have been trying to make the connection to Denmark.
And in a couple of weeks it has been made.

I cannot thank you enough.

Regards
Keith

You're very welcome Keith.

On the next page to him there was another lad from Faroe - Kristoffer Davidson from (I think it says) Kongshaven, Faroe. He was lodging at the same address as Peter. Maybe one of your contacts on Faroe knows someone looking for him?

Annie,


I can confirm that Peter Frederick Petersen who kindly checked out for me, was my Great Grandfather from the Faroe Islands.

The family in the Faroe Islands have confirmed the link.

Also the other person living in the same house Christopher Davidsen is related to the person that I am in contact with.

Also the people in Faroe Islands have sent me this morning the birth details of Peter in the local church register.  A photocopy of the original details.

Once again thank you.

Keith,

I'm so glad you've made your connection at last. What a coincidence that the boy lodging with Peter is also related to your contacts
