- Christian Jensen Klinte came from Klinte on Gotland, it is unclear if he was a priest there for Klinte and Fr?jel (Fr?jel). In the Gotlandish works on the churches there he is called a priest; but more likely he was his fathers help priest/curate (according to Wiberg). His father died 10 years after Christian left Gotland. There is very little information on Christian, his birth date is not known. He seem to have been not more than twenty years old (more likely early twenties) when he paid for an epitaph for his then dead mother in 1624. In 1625 (or already in 1618) Christian had moved from Gotland, that year he became priest at the "Kirken udenfor N?rreport" in K?benhavn on May 11, 1625. He was the last priest there before the church was joined to Vartov Hospital parish (Wiberg II, s. 179). No wife is known (I haven't checked Quistgaard), although he must have been married before 1618 as his son was born that year. He seems to have been in Sk?ne at the time of the birth of his son. According to Gunnar Svahnstr?hm it is said he moved in 1622; he may have moved back and forth if he was studying, and after his studies he may have hoped for a position at one of the Gotlandish churches, but as he clearly didn't get a postion other than being co-priest for his father then he may have moved to K?benhavn instead.
In some places (the herdaminne) they have two different people: Christian Jensen Klinte, who was son of Jens Christensen (probably the one who moved away in 1622 acording to Svahnstr?m) and Christen Jensen Klinte who was not the son of Jens Christensen but priest at the same time as him and then moved to K?benhavn and became priest to "Kirken udenfor N?rreport" (Vartov Hospital Sogn) and the father of Jacob (clearly a mixup here).
The family's epitaph still exist in Klinte church Gotland. The inscription written in Danish starts: "Anno 1624 haffuer Jeg Christian Jensen denne Taffle udi Klinte Kircke thill Guds ?re, och thill ?rlige og Dydig Quinde Katharin? Peder? Daatters min S: Moders, som d?de Ao 1622 som och thill mine kiere Sudschens huis Been her huiler, Salige og Christelige Ihukommel?e ladet forf?rdige. . ."
The epitaph shows both the dead and living family members, the inscription names only the deceased ones. Christian himself is shown as a young man, together with his father and mother and siblings. There are also two portraits - one of his father and one of himself, placed at the epitaph. His wife may also be in the epitaph possibly one of the larger women. His mother should have been the largest as it was customary. It is unknown if the wife of Christian, and mother of Jacob, died before Christian left Gotland.
The epitaph's inscription names Christian's mother as "Katharin? Peder? Daatters", who died in 1622, and below an extra inscription mentions some dead siblings: a sister named Giertrud Jensdatter, died in 1620 at 15 years old; a brother named Willads Jensen who died in 1623 at 19 years old; and then a man named Herman Willadsen in or from Hoborg? (it says under Hoborg "bleffuen med skib and godz" and therefore buried in S?nder? Church in 1623) - who must be some sort of relative, but it's unclear what it means; perhaps a son-in-law to Katherine and Jens Haderslev? Perhaps he went down with his ship near Hobro and was buried in S?nder Onsild church?
A few other of his siblings are also mentioned in "M?leri p? Gotland 1530-1830" by Gunnar & Karin Svahnstr?m, 1989, s. 32 (which deals with the epitaph) where they mentioned as: Christian - who "flyttade utomlands" (moved away from the Island) in 1622 (so there must be a reference to him in 1622) - which must be Christian Jensen who moved to K?benhavn; a son named Anton (Anthonius) who stayed in Gotland, no age given; a son named Hieronymous, who died as a student in Wierix in Antwerp; and a daughter named Magdalene, no date for birth or death.
The father of Christian was Jens Christensen Haderslev, thus born in Haderslev as the name suggests. Or possibly in Haderup: then named Jens Christensen Haderup - so he may be identical to Jens Christensen Haderup who was the clergyman for Serup and Lemming in Viborg county for a couple of years, he left and moved to another parish - unknown which, in the late 1590s as another priest is mentioned there in 1598. His sister, Else Christensdatter Haderup, was married circa 1602 to J?rgen Nielsen Brandstrup from Haderslev, who became priest to Serup-Lemming in 1602 (second successor after Jens Christensen). Else and Jens were children of Christen Graversen, priest to Haderup, Jylland, priest from circa 1550, and who died in 1600 ("Jubil?r", Wiberg, vol. II, p. 516). However it is still speculative that Jens Christensen Haderup is the same as Jens Christensen Haderslev (there are no one named Jens Christensen Haderslev as curate or priest anywhere in Denmark and he would have probably have been somewhere in Denmark first).
Jens Christensen Haderslev/Haderup? was the clergymand for Klinte and Fr?jel on Gotland from 1596 until his death in 1638. His wife was Katherine Pedersdatter (also called Kathrina Petr?a). According to "Gotlands kyrkor" by Erland Lagerl?f & Gunnar Svahnstr?m, 1966, s. 187, she was from Groningen and belonged to the Dutch family Sandfor. I don't know where this info comes from, but Gunnar Svahnstr?m was the leader of "antikvarieembedet" at the historical museum in Stockolm, Sweden, so I guess he would have had some qualified background for this conclusion. The father's name must have been Pieter Sandfor then?
