Rockholm/Rokholm/Vra Denmark
I have Hans Christian (Hansen)Rokholm born 26 May 1844 in Vra, Denmark. Their farm or estate was named ROKHOLM. Hans Christian told his children when they left for the United States to use the estate name of Rokholm as their Surname because their were already too many Hansens. They did and when they got to the U.S. they spelled it ROCKHOLM. Their are two separate Rokholms which started in Denmark. The second family of Rokholm purchased the same last name in Denmark in the early 1900's and they tended emigrate to Canada, and later, some to the U.S. My Rockholms went to Iowa and Nebraska. Any help would be great!
