Christensen(son)
(Andrew B) and Bartholomew (Sarah Jane)
(There were two young men named Andrew Christensen
living in the same town and their mail etc. was always getting confused.
Therefore, Andrew changed his name from Andrew Christensen to Andrew
B. Christenson to avoid the mixup. His descendants have continued
to use the "son" spelling rather than the "sen"
spelling of their last name. Two of Andrew's brothers did the same
thing, each inserting an initial and changing the spelling of the
last name.)
