You might get a better response if you give a location or explain how these Hansens are connected to each other.

Oscar hakon waldemar Hansen (1839-1940)
possibly this one born Lübeck, Germany? https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NJ4T-VLN

At least one of the other names you've listed was born Lübeck in Schleswig-Holstein.

Awaiting confirmation from OP of the birth date - strange the date of passing is also 1940 -  101 years old - wow, that would be great.

Think the 1839 birth I posted is the correct person- if you put those names in LDS site I strongly suspect they'll all appear as born Lübeck, Germany. Hansen is a very common name in that area so OP really needs to explain as much as possible. So many Schlewsig-Holstein records are freely available online that we have no idea what they already have found or what they need help finding. If it's only wanting to make contact with living relatives then could be a long wait.

I think you could be right about oscars birth it seems odd that he lasted till he was 101.

All the names connected to Harold gustaf waldemar hansen are brothers and sisters some born in lubeck and others born in denmark; as harold married matilda elizabeth wilkinson and had children one being my great grandad (of the same name as father) and marrying elsie twigg who had only one son my grandad harold hansen born in south shields, occupation chief engineer.

Lübeck is now in Germany but Schleswig-Holstein (which includes Lübeck) was once under Danish rule so you will find the family listed under Germany or Denmark depending on which way a record is listed.

I believe the above record IS the person you are looking for and it is possible he died at a very advanced age although you've given no indication where the death date came from.
The man Sandra found was born in 1893 and his parents' names are listed.

Just go to www.familysearch.org and you should find the family. You will also possibly find more information here-

Be sure to check the browsing records at the bottom (church records, etc.)
