  History of Jens Christensen By his Granddaughter Doris Christensen Wood Christensen was born 25 November 1797 in Steinbroen, Hjorring County, Denmark. His parents were Christen C. Christensen and Maren Jensen. He joined the Latter-Day-Saints Church in Denmark in 1852. On his estate in Denmark, there was a stone bridge near his home. Because of this he was called Jens Stenbroen (Stenbroen meaning stone bridge in Danish). He was called Jens even after he came to Utah. On this stone bridge a mob tarred and feathered the Latter Day Saint missionaries. After, the mob went up to grandfather's house and broke the windows in his house. (This was told to cousin Rilla Jensen by brother Severn Lee). He was a boy of twelve when this happened. Then grandfather sold his estate and came to Utah in 1854. He also paid the way for several saints to come also. He was a contractor and builder in Denmark. When he came to Brigham City he helped build the Tabernacle and the back part of the Court House and other buildings in Brigham. His picture is in the book: History of Box Elder County with the first band of Brigham City, Utah. His first wife was Anne Petersen. She was the daughter of Christen Andersen and Kirsten Pedersen. They were married 4 October 1818 at Taars Parish, Hjorring, Denmark. Their children were: Johanne Marie Jensen, born 3 Dec 1818, in Houstrup, Hjorring, Denmark Christen Jensen, born 30 Mar 1820, in Houstrup, Hjorring, Denmark Kirstein Margrethe Jensen, born 7 Oct 1821 Christine Jensen, born 25 April 1823 Kirsten Marie Jensen, born 21 Sept 1824 Nicoline Jensen, 9 Sept 1826 Peder Christian Jensen, born 8 Dec 1827 Christen Jensen, born 16 Aug 1830 Niels Christian Jensen, 15 July 1832 His second wife was my grandmother Amelia Christensen (Munk). [Christensen underlined]. My grandfather married my grandmother after all his other children were grown up. They had four children: Anne Marie Christensen, born 2 april 1861 in Brigham City, Utah James Christensen, born 6 January 1864, in Brigham City, Utah; died 2 Jan 1948 Amelia Christensen, born 19 Dec 1867, in Brigham City, Utah; died Dec 1950 Martha Christensen, born March 1870, in Brigham City, Utah They were married in the Salt Lake Endowment House in 1861, she was twenty four and he was sixty one years old. All my father could remember of his father was that he had long white whiskers for his father died when he was nine years old. Grandfather died 28 April 1873 at Brigham City, Utah at the age of seventy five years old. He was buried at Brigham City Cemetery on 2nd East street down by Williard S. Hansen's (Rilla's father's plot)
