Son of Mikkel Anderson and Dorthea Marie Jacobsen
Married Mette Jensen
Sketch - Anders Mikkelsen was born on the 27th of September 1837 in Bredballe, Ribe, Vejle, Denmark. He is the son of Mikkel Andersen and Dorthea Marie Jacobsen.
He married Mette Jensen and they had four children: Mikkel Anders, James, and twins Ane Sophi Dorthea and Soren Peter. He was a shoemaker by trade.
He was baptized and confirmed a member of the LDS church by J Lehristians on 12 Apr 1878. He was ordained a teacher by J. Nielsen on the 11th of Aug 1878, and later was ordained an Elder by J. Nielsen on the 20th of Oct 1878.
He and his oldest son, Mikkel Anders, came to America five years after the family joined the church. They prepared the way for the rest of the family to come later.
They made their home in Fountain Green, Sanpete county, Utah. Here he continued his trade of making shoes. Sometimes he and his son Jim (James) would make shoes and send to his grandchildren for Christmas.
He and his wife took out their endowments and were sealed to each other on the 13th of February 1889.
He was in an accident going after fire wood up the canyon. His horses ran away with him and the wagon. He lost the sight of his left eye. They said it was laying out on his cheek when they got to him. His leg was also injured.
Because they didn't feel that he would live they never bothered to set it or fix it. As a result he was crippled for the rest of his life. He lived to the age of 72 and died on the 3rd of January 1919 at Fountain Green, Sanpete, Utah where he is also buried.
