• Notes

  In the census of 1834, Helene was a housekeeper for Casper Djernes in Kaerup parsonage. She married him in 1836. Twin boys were born in 1838, but Helene and Casper sent one of their infant twins to live with Casper's mother at Diernesgêard. A daughter was born in 1842, but by this time Casper was living with some of his family at Rotb²lgêard. After his death in August of that year, Helene went to live with her own parents, farmer Peder Thomassen and Karen Andersdatter. In 1844 she married her brother-in-law, Lars Larsen Djernes, and moved with him and her children to Madsb²l. The 1845 census for Thisted, Hillerslev, Hjardemaal, Klitten, En gaard, Madsb²ll, shows Helene with Lars and two children--Christian, 7, and Marie, 4, both listed as Diµrnis--and two servants, Lars Nielsen, 18, from Hjardemaal, and Johanne Pedersdatter, 24, from Arup. The 1850 census shows the family still at Madsb²ll with Lars and Helene each 38 years old, and the children now enumerated as Lars Chr Larsen, 12, born in T²mmerby; Sophie Marie Larsdatter, 9, born in Lild, Caspara Larsen, 4, born in Hjardemaal and Casper Josva Prµtzmann Larsen, 1, born in Hjardemaal. Maren Ludvigsdatter, 10, listed as a foster daughter, born in Hjardemaal was also in the household. At this point I don't know whether or not she was related in some way. Helene's second marriage was not a happy one; Lars drank, gambled,and did not look after his property. Helene and Lars had four children, but finally Helene separated from her husband, by then known as Lars Madsb²l. She bought a small homestead in Kaeret, Lild about 1865, eldest son Lars Christian and youngest son Erik joining her. She kept house for Lars Christian, who had become a widower after only a year of marriage, and lived to welcome Lars' second wife when he married again in 1876. Helene died alone 21 Feb 1878 when Lars and his wife were away from home. Lars' daughter, little Helene, heard strange noises from her grandmother, but by the time she could fetch neighbors, Helene had died.The Parish record of her death and burial refers to her as the separated wife of Lars Larsen Djernµs.
