Rasmus Petersen b 21 Sep 1826 in Lynge, Soro, Denmark d 4 Mar 1902 Ferron, Emery, Utah Married 19 Feb 1852 in Ferron, Emery, Utah to Ane Kirstine Christensen b 14 Jan 1824 Haldagermagle, Krummerup, Soro, Denmark d 4 Oct 1886 in Ferron, Emery, Utah.

One of their children, Niels Rasmus Petersen b 2 Jun 1858 in Tystrup, Soro, Denmark d 9 Dec 1931 in Manti, Sanpete, Utah Married on 21 Oct 1880 to Jensine Caroline Hansen b 5 Aug 1856 Nylarsker, Bornholm, Denmark d 31 Aug 1937 in Manti, Sanpete, Utah.

One of their children, Niels Christian Petersen, my maternal great grandfather, b29 Dec 1881 Manti, Sanpete, Utah. d 9 Jul 1966 Manti, Sanpete, Utah. Married twice on record. My line is from marriage on 12 Jul 1916 Manti, Sanpete, Utah to Elleve Kirstine Martine Bach b 2 Jun 1984 Aarhus, Aarhus, Denmark d 21 Jun 1984 Provo, Utah, Utah.

I have records that I found on the old Ancestral File at the Family History Library. These records for this line go much farther back. I have not done much in the way of finding proof for these details and two branches of the family have disputed the information contained in the Ancestral File. Any help in distinguishing the details would be greatly appreciated.

So far, I've found Elleve Peterson in the Manti City Cemtery. According to the record she was born June 2, 1889, in Denmark, she died June 21, 1984 in Provo, UT.
I also found Niels Rasmus Petersen's death record here:

hope this helps!
I really appreciate you taking the time to find these. I guess I should have stated in my original post that the information listed was information I already have, just as an indication of the direction this line goes...from the point of immigration.
wow, thank you for this, I do have her information. Also, I have found the above information online before and it is not correct. Someone has written it down incorrectly from the headstone. We were recently at that cemetery (again) and my husband took pics of all the headstones from our family. As soon as I can get him to give me a copy of the file, I will load it on here. (her birth year is incorrect)
I also saw Elleve's record on the SSDI, it has her birth year as 1889.
Hi again-
I'm wondering what information the two branches are disputing? When they arrived or where the came from?
