This is the access page for Volume 2, the Christiansen Family, of Robert Christiansen’s Family History - Christiansen, Rasmussen, Larsen & Hansen.

My Rasmussen great-grandparents, Lars Christian Rasmussen and Karen Marie Andersen, were both born and raised in Voer Sogn northeast of Aalborg, and lived in Voer Sogn until emigrating with their five daughters in 1882.  In 1883 they settled in Boomer Township, Pottawattamie County, Iowa, where their son, Marion, was born.
