If Hans Wenzel Strand married Ann Summers in 11-9-1865. I cannot find him on any census records. Is this OK.

Which county did they live or where did the marriage take place?

If he was a Ship's Steward he could be away at sea when the census was taken.

If he's a ship's steward then he might not be on the censuses.

:-)

Portland Rose....Information matches but where is Hans Wenzel Strand. Cannot find him on any census can you.

His father is Andrew Strand no birht date

If you look on the Mormon site ....... it seems as if most of the people with surname Strand come from Scandinavian countries.


Andrew could be the anglicized form of Andreas

You maybe should be looking to those countties in an attmept to find Hans Wenzel.

There's no death for Hans so he must have died at sea. Could be he died before 1871.

Rose

Thanks for all the searching last night... Big help but still cant find Andrew Strand father of Hans. He was a Master Mariner.

Linda,


as I suggested Strand seems to be a Scandinavian name.

Andrew could be the anglicized form of Andreas, or some similar spelling

.......... try using the wild card symbol * when searching for him

ie, Andr* Stran*

This will find Andreas, Andrew, etc or Stand, Strand, Strans etc


It may be that you will not find him in the UK, but in Scandinavia or Europe.


The Mormon site (especially the IGI), family trees on rootsweb.com or ncestry, or even googling his name ....in Google put "andr* stran*". Usig the " " ensures that you will not be finding all the andr* and all the stran* whether they are connected or not!
