Provenance |
This photograph shows Peter Hellman in his Danish naval uniform. He was born Rasmus Peter Hellman Rasmussen in 1909 and changed his name to Rasmus Peter Hellmann at age 21. In America he changed his last name to Hellman. He never went by Rasmus and was always known as Pete. Hellman served in the Danish Navy. The photo here was taken at a studio on Fredericksberggade number 34 of Copenhagen, Denmark in 1911, 86 years after his grandfather Julius Ferdinand Hellmann was born at Fredericksberggade number 140. He married Karen Kirstine Fuglsang in Atlantic, Iowa in 1920. They are on the museum's Wall of Honor. |
