Images:

1. Carsten & Marie MATHIESEN home: address Enklaveve 6, Visby Sonderjyllands, Denmark, located about 50 meters from the parish church (see next image). The photo is obviously recent, and of course, Carsten & Marie lived in the house in the latter half of the 19th century. It is, presumably, the birthplace of their children. The house has been enlarged (lengthened) since Carsten and Marie lived in it, when the roof would have been thatched, not as today. (Photo and historic information generaously provided by Søren Schmidt, Lokalhistorisk Arkiv, Bredebro, DK.):
