(We don’t knew very much about Andro. Only when he was born, when he died and that he married Marie Christine Nielsen.
Who can tell us more about Andro and his progeny?)

What you can read above I wrote when I designed this page first time. Now, tonight 12 September 2016, we knew so mush more! We are in contact with Andros grandchild Vivi Lea Christiansen. She has brought us a portrait of him and some other picktures.
Sandra!, how nice that you got in contact!
