- From the Åker-Åkirkeby kirkebog:
July 10, 1648: Ægte Børn fødde og døbte, #34, 6' Trin, Jacob Smeds d:
Mareke.
March 2, 1651: Ægte Børn fødde og døbte, #7, Oculi, Jacob Smids søn
Nicolaus.
August 25, 1654: Dødde, #380, Jacob Smids barn Maria.
June 6, 1656: Ægte Børn, #21, Fer. 2 Pent. Jacob Smids dat: Else.
August 1, 1658: Ægte Børn, #26, 8' Trin. Jacob Smids søn Tønnis.
June 25, 1669: Dødde, #27, Maria Jacob Smids, æ. 51 aar.
May 14, 1671: Døde, #15, Fer. 3 Pas. Jacob Smid her i Byen, æ. 56 aar.
It is very probable that Jacob Tønnesen Smed is the son of Tønnes
Jochumsen, a blacksmith (smed) resident at "Præstedammen" (later called
Smedegård, 16' Slg.) in Åker parish; Tønnes Jochumsen was the son of
Jochum Tønnesen Müller (died 1590) of Svaneke.
The church for Åkirkeby township and Åker parish is located just outside
of the township of Åkirkeby proper, so paradoxically enough the town that
draws its name from the "River Church" (Aae Kirke) does not actually have
a church within its municipal boundries at all. Åkirkeby was the
traditional seat of Bornholm's judiciary authority, its "Landsting"
(Parliament), and the Aae Kirke was used as their meeting place.
