Until 1850, most Danes who emigrated to North America were unmarried men.During this period, some Danes achieved notability and recognition.Bering was the first European to arrive in Alaska in 1741.In 1666, the Danish West India Company took control of the island of St. The Danes brought African slaves to those islands, where the slaves were put to work in the snuff, cotton and sugar industries.The party arrived in Hudson Bay on September 7, landed at the mouth of Churchill River, settling at what is now Churchill, Manitoba.The two ships were put side-by-side and prepared for winter as best as they could. Cold, famine, and scurvy destroyed most of the men. Only Munk and two sailors survived to return, leaving no settlement in the New World. The surviving crew members aboard the Lamprenen reached Bergen, Norway on 20 September 1620.[4] The earliest documented Danish immigrants to the new world, Jan Jansen and his wife Engeltje, along with their children, arrived in the Dutch colony of New Amsterdam in 1636.

It also has an algorithm that weeds out "Asianphiles" and accounts for Chinese cultural values such as date of immigration and highest level of education.Mainstream dating sites, she says, didn't work.“Although these sites do provide a large pool of candidates, many of them are not of similar background, since most Chinese are not on these sites," said Zhao."In the US, 85% of ethnic Chinese still marry other Chinese, but there is no good platform to connect this group of people.”“Both the process and the notion for dating in Chinese culture is quite different than those of the US and most of the western world,” Anita Tsai of 2Red Beans explained.Scandinavians, Danes and Norwegians in particular, made up a large portion of the settlers in the Dutch colony of New Netherland, now New York.After 1750, Danish families in the Protestant Moravian Brethren denomination immigrated to Pennsylvania, where they settled in the Bethlehem area alongside German Moravians.The frigate Enhiørningen had been broken down by ice during the winter. More than a century after Christian IV's expedition came explorer Vitus Jonassen Bering (1681–1741).In 1728, he documented the narrow body of water that separated North America and Asia, which was later named the Bering Sea in his honor.They settled in the newly acquired state of Utah, which had been under Mexican control until 1848.There were 17,000 such immigrants, many of these settled in small farming communities in the Sanpete and Sevier counties.Captained by the navigator and explorer, Jens Munk, the ships were searching for the Northwest Passage.After sailing into Frobisher Bay and Ungava Bay, Munk eventually passed through Hudson Strait and reached Digges Island (at the northern tip of Quebec) on August 20.Lassen is considered one of the most important early settlers of California.From 18, about 60 Danes settled in the United States every year.The first Dane known to have arrived in North America was The Reverend Rasmus Jensen, a priest of the Church of Denmark (Evangelical-Lutheran).Little is known about the life of Jensen, not even the parish where he served as pastor, although his diary during the expedition provides some information.
