If you're not aware, in Denmark there's no Christmas on the 25th, everything happens on the 24th in the evening

My maternal grands were from
Schlewig-Holstein and that was their tradition, also. So we had xmas with them and then the American xmas morning at home. -

we're considering saving some presents for the 25th purely to save time, since it takes forever if we have to go through everything for 15 people on Christmas eve. -

I love the big family events, though it is sort of intense and by the end of it you're ready to be a bit on your own.Where abouts in Schleswig Holstein? About half of historical Schleswig is Danish these days, and from 1864 to 1920 it was all German with a large Danish minority. Before 1864 the two duchies were under Danish rule but independent entities.
Much of my family lived in what is now Germany, around Flensburg. About 40% of Flensburg spoke Danish in 1920.

My grandmother's family were in the Husum area. My grandfather a bit south of there. Greatgrandfather was from Hamburg. There was a maternal gg grandfather who was a Danish sailing Captain. Genetics show up from everywhere the Vikings went, all the way down to Ukraine.Paternal side is British Isles. My people, it seems, got around.

@Puck closest thing to Husum I have is in the 1500s, so probably no relation
