Poul Jacobsen "Kinafarer" (1717-75)

Descendants

I have an old ambition of mapping all of Poul Kinafarer's descendency. Together with my wife Tove Storm Tuxen - one of the descendants - I wrote a small genealogy book about one of the branches in 1994. But the posterity is large - very large. So it takes time and I may never succeed. But I have collected sufficient material to publish a bit about the first generations here. If you are searching for particular persons, you may benefit from using my search page. But as mentioned, I have included only the first generations and as a general rule I do not include persons born after 1900. If you are searching for people younger than that, you will have to contact me directly.

The branch which is most thoroughly covered is the posterity of Hans Poulsen Storm as this was the topic of our genealogy book.
I also have quite some material about the descendency of the oldest daughter Maren Jacobsen, married to skipper Hans Christensen Winning. In addition I have collected some material on the posterity of Kathrine Marie Jacobsen, married to tenant on Østrupgaard Niels Tolderlund.

In contrast, I have very little material about descendants after the following:

If you have knowledge about these families (and naturally also about the families Storm, Winning and Tolderlund), please contact me (see my contact details in the lower right corner of this page). And naturally I will contribute if you miss information about branches that I know of.
