Sentenced To Be Hanged: The Tragic Story Of A Danish Immigrant, Peter D. Thomsen
Sentenced To Be Hanged: The Tragic Story Of A Danish Immigrant, Peter D. Thomsen
The Bridge
Several years ago, Thorvald Hansen who was then in
charge of the Danish Immigrant Archives at Grand View
College, Des Moines, Iowa, asked if I would be interested in
writing the Peter Mathiasen story. I had previously told him
that in my childhood home I had heard bits and pieces of this
tale and that what I remembered most was how intensely it
was discussed by some of the immigrant people with whom
my parents associated. Little did I realize they were talking
about something that happened fifteen years before my
birth.

This is the story of my Danish grandfather whom I never
knew except through infrequent stories from my father. I
asked my father Aaron to write a family history about his
dad, but he never did. I never found out why he wouldn't. I
wondered about my Thisted grandparents before and after
both my parents died, so I decided to piece the puzzle
together as best I could, while several uncles and aunts were
still alive.

Recollections From Our Voyage To America, Soren Pedersen
The Bridge
We departed from Limskov in Norup Sogn May 6, 1862,
to visit my sister, my brother-in-law, and my mother on my
home farm, and were there a couple of days before we took
leave of the whole family never to see them again in this life.
It was both a serious and a sad time.

Carl Hansen's Concept Of Christmas, David Iversen
The Bridge
As one of the major Danish-American immigrant writers
of the early 20th century, Carl Hansen wrote short stories,
sketches, and one novel, co-founded (with Oscar W. Lund)
The Christmas journal Julegranen, and published Dansk Jul i
Amerika in 1909. This paper will focus on three stories,
published in Landmrend: Fortrellinger by Dansk Boghandel
in Cedar Falls, Iowa in 1908, which have Christmas as a
theme. The three stories are: For 30 aar siden (30 Years
Ago"), Bowlegged Joe ("Bowlegged Joe"), and Gamle Hans
Nielsen's sidste Jul ("Old Hans Nielsen's Last Christmas").
What follows is a brief look at "Carl Hansen's …

To Have Revenge On The Self-Righteous University: Pietism And Religious Doubt In Sophus Keith Winther's Beyond The Garden State, John M. Nielsen
The Bridge
In the spring of 1978, Arizona Quarterly published what
was to be the last of Sophus Keith Winther's scholarly
articles. Entitled, "The Emigrant Theme," this essay in many
ways was a summation of Winther's thoughts, not only regarding
the experience of Scandinavian-Americans as told in
literature, but more importantly of his reflections regarding
the whole of human experience. For him, emigration was the
great human story, stretching from the dawn of humankind
in the Olduvai Gorge to a foreboding present. It was the
story of the Israelites wandering in the wilderness; it was the
myth of the American westward movement. …

Scandinavians settled with those of their own kind and
language, being drawn by relatives and friends who had
gone before them, but also through newspapers circulated
among them. Den Danske Pioneer was widely read among
Danes and may well have been the source of information
about the settling of northeastern Montana. Mr. E. F.
Madsen, an immigrant and intellectual who had made a
scouting trip to that area about 1905 urged other Danes to
settle together and establish a Danish colony.

Mary Jensen Dilberg wrote the following account, in
English, in 1972. She was born in Aarhus, Denmark, on
November 4, 1891, sent out to earn her own living at age 12
and journeyed to America by herself in 1911 where she
spent time in Red Lodge, Montana, Ord, Nebraska, and
finally settled in Bothell, Washington, near Seattle, where
she spent most of her adult life except for a four year return
to Nebraska from 1919 to 1923.
