Danish Emmigration
The following database was taken from the Copenhagen police records of people emigrating from Denmark to towns in Reno County between 1878 and 1899. The date is that of the emigrant's registration, not necessarily the day he/she sailed, although that usually occurred within five days of their registration. This is by no means a list of all Danes who came to Reno County. Some may have listed their destination as such places as Chicago or New York and later came to Reno County. Danish characters in the surnames have been changed to corresponding letters in the English alphabet, so that the entries can be found through the search engine. There are a few Swedes in this list, who evidently left for the US from Copenhagen.
