Mats, maybe we can get your way someday. My ancestors are from Denmark and I would love to see it.
The original name is Hansen. When the family immigrated, there were forms to fill out. I guess the story is that the "e" was written like a large loop and mistaken for an "o". We are supposed to be the only descendents from Denmark with the spelling of Hanson.
Problem is that my great garndfather was an only son, my granfather was an only son, my father was an only son, I have two brothers but am the only one with kids and we have one son. My grandson, his son is the last Hanson boy to date. My Daughter has no kids and will not have our name anyway. Pretty slim tree. The family is about to die out.
