Niels Hansen Holm: Parents??

[christian Holm]

Hi, I am looking for the parents of Niels Hansen Holm ( my 4x Greatgrandfather) Niels was born in Kobenhavn? around 1741-1743 depending on which census you look at. ( 1787 or 1801) His Occupation was a Braendeviins Braender ( Schnapps Distiller) He was apparently married twice. I know Marie Olsen, born 1757? was one wife, they were the parents of my 3x Greatgrandfather Adolph Andreas Holm. I have no knowledge of his other wife? I have struggled a bit trying to find Niels parents, as there seems to be so many people called Niels Hansen Holm. Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated, as I'm a bit lost. Regards Christian.

I cannot find his other marriage. If he was married in Nikolaj Parish then it won't be found as there are no books for those years.

Thanks Ian, I appreciate your research skills You've definitely found the right bloke. I had wondered if a lack of records was going to be against me. It looks like Niels parents names were Hans Christenson Holm and Anne Marie Holm? If I read the Birth certificate right. I wonder whether his first wife Anna died from disease or during child birth? I have seen that he had 7 children with his 2nd wife Marie.(thanks to you help earlier) Karen was the oldest and my 3x Greatgrandfather Adolph was the Youngest born in 1799. Many thanks, Regards Christian.

It looks like Niels parents names were Hans Christenson Holm and Anne Marie Holm? If I read the Birth certificate right.

Cheers Christian
His parents were Hans Christensøn Holm a tanner at Vestergade and wife Gunild Margrethe Nielsdatter Speilberg.
The other names are the godparents.

Hi Ian, Fantastic research. Thank your Danish Friend from me also. I think you should have another star added to your rating!! There have certainly been a variety of trades within my family. I noted with interest how the use of "Nielsen and Datter" was used to indicate that they were the son or daughter of Niels. That type of naming was around in the Medieval times, and is how a lot of surnames were founded. Obviously Niels wife Marie was the daughter of Ole (Olsdatter)?? Previously I had seen her surname as Olsen, but now I am a bit unsure whether it was? or if it was a reference to a son?? Any clue? It may shed some light on who her parents were. Regards Christian
