Here was Henrik's explanation of the database for my blog. | |||
"This reply is only about the Danish Emigration Archive. | |||
It covers only emigration from Denmark in the period 1869-1940, but only the period up to 1908 is yet in the database. | |||
Consequently emigration from that part of Denmark which was under German rule 1864-1920 is not covered, i.e. the counties Haderslev, Aabenraa, Sønderborg and Tønder north of today’s border. | |||
The register was written by the police in Copenhagen but covers all Denmark. | |||
From the main page http://www.udvandrerarkivet.dk/udvandrerprotokollerne/ it is possible to choose English among many other languages. | |||
Once here, you can search for person’s by filling in the form and choose “Start Search”. | |||
When writing a person’s name you write the family name first followed by one or more first names. Example “Madsen, Viggo”. | |||
Narrow your search by filling in as many boxes as possible, but be aware that you can also narrow too much to get a result. | |||
Remember that names of person’s and places are often spelled in different ways and use your imagination. Kristensen may be Christensen etc. | |||
If you know the year, but not a more precise date, you just write the year and nothing more. | |||
There is an additional register with about 4000 people who emigrated in 1879-1887 via Hamburg, and are not covered by the ordinary register: http://www.ddd.dda.dk/vejlelister/soeg_udvandrede.asp | |||
This register is only searchable in Danish (Name, Occupation, Parish, Year, ID-code)." | |||
