^{No death record offered for his first wife (Christiane Friedericke Kühnel)}

I don´t think she died.
Here she is in the 1860 Census

Thanks Dave, that’s really helpful. Think it confirms that there were 2 men of very similar names (even if both from Lubeck), one marrying in Copenhagen the other in Lubeck. Thanks for your help. Deirdre

Thank you, I hadn’t found either of those 🙄

[davecapps]

go here - census search
https://www.danishfamilysearch.com/search/

type in last name "Kalies"

She was listed with Nicolaus in 1840
and with Joachim in 1845
Some woman

Oh no, just when I decided they were 2 different men 🙄 will have a look later, thanks again Dave

[davecapps]

They might have been brothers and swapped wives

link was too long to post

This certainly looks like the same man
