Thyge Andersen Enevoldsen

A Respected Man

"Sir - I feel it incumbent upon me to express in true words, simple though they may be, how deeply sorry I was to learn of the tragic death of Mr Enevoldson, Skipper of the trawler Lord Deramore. Skipper Enevoldson was beloved by all who knew him, for his exceptional quality of modesty, blended with human sympathy and courage. A man who despised publicity, he was one of Hull's most competent skippers.
Skipper Enevoldson died as he would have wished, on the sea that he so dearly loved, and in his words of good wishes for his son's safety he revealed his true character of unselfishness at the very last".

Movie showing Audrey Enevoldson visiting Denmark in 1978.


This very short movie shows Audrey Enevoldson visiting the homestead in Denmark where her Father was born.  The visit appears to have taken place in June 1978.  I think Krista Veise, Audrey's cousin is also in the movie and possibly other relatives.  It is interesting to see the old homestead which was recently renovated.  The homestead in 1978 seems to be still very isolated whereas today it is surrounded by modern houses in the middle of a housing estate.
