At the census paper in 1880 he is listed as a farmhand, temporarily absent in Guldager, Vrejlev parish and might be in Vejby, Hjørring.

To give away were: Line-keeper Niels Nielsen (bride's father) and farmer Søren Christian Pedersen of Hvorup Mosegaard.
Publication of the banns 1st time on the 1st of July 1888.

From the wedding-papers are seen that both served at "Hvorup Mosegaard" and it might be here they learned to know each other.

They bought a small farm "Engholm", Land Register Nr. 19 a Vestbjerg Bye, Sulsted Parish.

At the census paper in 1890 is listed one person in service namely Anders Christian Møller, 45, unmarried. He is Jens Daniel Frederik Møller's halfbrother. He is also seen as godfather at Nikoline Møller's christening in 1892. At the census paper in 1906 it is seen that Niels Nielsen, 80 years, Ester Salome Louise's father, is living with them and at the census paper in 1911 that he has been in the parish since 1901.

"Engholm" burned about 1904. It has not yet been checked up on when and how it happened as I neither have found out when they bought the farm.

Silverwedding was celebrated at "Engholm" in the summer of 1913. The following song is from then.

Silverwedding song

In January 1929 they sell the farm to the daughter Nicoline, who in December 1928 had married farm-bailiff at "Engholm" Peder "Per" Jacobsen Jensen of Engholm.

In the deed of conveyance is the following put down as a contract:

I and my wife Ester Salome Louise Møller reserve us the right to use for our lifetime the room in dwelling-house of the farm which we now live in with free admittance to this and the right to go where we want in the buildings of the farm, in its garden and on its land where we want and also use of conveniences.
The buyer must furthermore give us our full maintenance and good taken care of and nursing especially in case of illness and oldage. The written commitments are valid also for the survivor.
If the buyer or the pensioners on their own farm should wish to cancel the contract each of the partners may demand so with a warning of 3 months to the 1st of May or the 1st of November, and then the buyer must within a month after the notice of termination pay as a commutation of the pension 10000 kr., ten thousand Kroner, after which the commitment is signed to extension. The same right to cancel the contract must be due to the survivor, but after one of the pensioner's death must to the survivor not get more as compensation than 6000 kr. write six thousand kroner.

The pension on own farm was already canseled the year after - Which of who did this is uncertain, but Per did not want Frederik to interfere with the farming, why they had to move.

The son Niels had bought a small-holding in Ferslev to which they moved.
