Kristiane Hansdatter Holst

About her, her son Alexander Lange writes in the mentioned "Memories":

"My mother Christiane Holst was of average height, slender and lean. She was evidently of a more vehement and irritating temper than my father, even though I cannot remember having heard her say any hot tempered and unsuitable words to anyone. She probably was by nature a bit melancholic, and I well remember that she later in life said: 'Please don't let God give you my dark mind'.

"She was serious and strict, and used the rod, but few people have had a better mother than I had." Lange.

They had 8 children. (No. 30-37)
