I am looking for any information on the 3 Didrichsen brothers who
emigrated from Denmark to St. Croix in the early 1800s.

Johan Nicolaj Didrichsen, Frederik Wilhelm Didrichsen, and Hans Joachim Didrichsen. I’m also wondering if a 4th brother also moved to St. Croix--Søren Henrik Didrichsen.

I also have conflicting information on the parents of Johan Nicolay Willebald Didrichsen brn 10 oct 1842 in St. Croix. One source has his parents as Fritz Wilhelm Didrichsen and Anne Battier, the other has his parents as Frederik Wilhelm Didrichsen and Louise Marie Yates.

I have searched in the DDA census for St. Croix and the book “A List of Inhabitants of the Danish West Indies” compiled by Hugo Ryberg, Any
other source information would also be appreciated.

Thanks,
Christina

Hi Sussie,
Are you related to the Didrichsen brothers in anyway?
