Lauritz Hermansen (1855-1903) — any Danish research experts?!

Signe's confirmation record from 1890 Serup Parish:

Interestingly it states "Deceased labourer Larvids Hermansen"

Fascinating! I wonder if that's what Signe believed about her father or whether it was considered scandalous to be the child of divorced parents? At the time of Singe's confirmation the New Zealand Lauritz was certainly alive and kicking, living it up with a new Danish wife and two children! 

Ian, do you know what the mg means in the last column?

"mg" stands for "meget godkendt" which means very well approved. I think it is describing their bible knowledge.

Thanks again, Ian — I appreciate being able to tap into your knowledge!

Hi again
I found another Lauritz's sibling although with the same name as the one from 1854:
Henriette Marie Hermansen born 1856

The Henriette born in 1854 must have died very early.

Yes, Lauritz had two siblings named Henriette — they both died when they were young (1854 to some time before 1856, and 1856-1874).
