Cai Mygind's book on families from Hanherred and Hillerslev Herred, pages 43-44, gives information on Mariane. She was born at Oddersb²l and baptized in Hjardemaal Church. She was confirmed in 1794, and in 1800 became the second wife of Lars Nielsen Djernes, a recent widower with five children. Her name was given as Mariane Caspersdatter in the 1787 census when she was 8 years old. She was listed as Mariane Prµtzmann in the 1801 census with Lars, his five children, and two servants, and continued to be lilsted that way in census records until 1850. Mariane and Lars had seven children. After her husband's death in 1835, Mariane retained undivided possession of Djernesgaard for many years. The 1840 census lists her at Djernisgaard, age 61, as a farmer's widow. Five of her children lived there at that time, as well as her grandson, Lars Christian Caspersen, Svend Jacobsen, a renter and carpenter, and Martha Andersdatter, a maid. In 1845 three of the children lived with her at Djernisgaard, along with her grandson and three servants. Finally she let her son Christen Kold become owner, while she became a pensioner and lived with Christen and his wife. She is listed as a 71 year old widow under her son's care in the 1850 census. Her name is recorded as Mariane Kaspersdatter. After Christen's untimely death in 1853, Mariane lived with her daughter-in-law and her second husband. She died at age 84.
