Ludvig CHRISTENSEN and Mildred FENNELL NSW

[Eyesee]

Ludvig CHRISTENSEN married Mildred FENNELL in Sydney in 1882. In some records his name is written and Lewis or Louis as well.

He was Danish and left Hamburg on the Humboldt, arriving in NZ in Jan 1875. Obviously went to NSW at some stage, but returned to NZ about 1897.

When he died in 1913 in NZ his death certificate states he had been back in NZ for 16 years and had one surviving son aged 20 and two surviving daughters aged 24 and 30. The two daughters were Lena L registered Glebe in 1883 and Mildred L registered in Newtown in 1889.

Can anyone help me find the son. Have tried all the various spellings but no luck so far. Believe the widow and children returned to NSW as I found a Mildred Christensen marriage to a John Faulks in 1918, not sure if that is the daughter or mother. There is also a Lena Lily Christensen death in 1962.

Ludvig's death certificate names his parents as Anton Christensen and Lena Pandrup.

Many thanks
