About Johan Frederik Carlsen

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._L._Hunley_(submarine)]
A.J. Kronegh of the Danish National Archive has identified the J.F. Carlsen of Hunley. Johan F. Carlsen was born in Ærøskøbing April 9, 1841. The last year he is registered in the census of Ærøskøbing is 1860, where he is registered as "sailor". The teeth of his remains in Hunley still bear significant marks of a cobbler, which was the profession of his father. In 1861 J.F. Carlsen entered the freight ship Grethe of Dragør, which landed in Charleston in February 1861, where J.F. Carlsen left the ship. In June 1861 he entered Jefferson Davis (the Confederate privateer brig originally named Putnam) as mate.
