RE: Fatigue

Okay. Well cool. The Copenhagen area is where our family originates, so there you go!

What's funny is, I was looking through a book of census records for the Copenhagen area and actually came across some families named Albrethsen. Our family had always held that the name was Americanized by the brothers, but it may very well be that they new these other people and changed it to that. I'd heard of Albrecht as a first name, but never Albreth. I wonder how that came about?

re: back to Canada

Sounds like true love to me. :)

Sort:  

I looked it up and found this: https://www.nordicnames.de/wiki/Albreth

An alternative spelling of Albrekt or Albrecht...

And it was love indeed :)
