    Across Oceans, Across Time ® … Stories from the Family History & Genealogy Center … It’s not uncommon for a business firm, a building, or even a street to bear an individual’s name. It is, however, somewhat less usual to lend one’s name to a battleship. In Annapolis, Maryland, the one runs across the name Klakring without necessarily realizing that the references are to the descendants of Danish immigrants. Carl Theodor Klakring was born in Copenhagen in 1821, the oldest son of a small shopkeeper, Niels Madsen Klakring, and his wife, Dorthea. Carl trained as a copperplate engraver and by 1850 he was working in his profession, had married, and fathered a son named Olaf. The family lived in Holmen parish, one of the Copenhagen neighborhoods close to the Danish naval shipyards. Sometime in the 1850s Carl’s wife apparently died; he fostered out his son and came to the Washington, DC, where he married a young German immigrant woman in 1860, changed his name to Charles, and had a second family. He continued to live and work as an engraver in the nation’s capital until his death in the late 1890s. In 1869 Olaf Klakring, now 20 years old and a trained cooper, became the 2nd generation of the family to come to the U.S. He gravitated to Annapolis, married an American girl, and raised a large family while working as a barber there for several decades. Olaf’s 2nd son, Leslie, born in 1883, was a lifelong resident of Annapolis and employed for many years at the U.S.

Churchill Public Affairs RED SEA [July 18, 2012] –The guided-missile destroyer USS Winston S. Churchill (DDG 81) passed through the Suez Canal and into the U.S. Navy 5 th Fleet area of operations (AOR) July 18 th . Churchill, a member of the Eisenhower Carrier Strike Group (CSG), trailed the guided-missile cruiser USS Hue City (CG 66) and the nuclear-powered carrier Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN 69), along with the guided-missile frigate USS Klakring (FFG 42), the dry cargo/ammunition ship USNS Robert E. Peary and the fleet replenishment oiler USNS Big Horn (T-AO 198) though the 167-kilometer canal The destroyer’s position at the rear of the convoy of ships allows it to better defend against threats if they arise, according to Cmdr. Christine R. O’Connell, executive officer of Churchill. The small arms and air support capa- bilities of the destroyer make it more capable of responding quickly to threats in the narrower confines of the canal, said O’Connoll, so response time is important. “An approaching ship might be innocent in its intentions, but in case it’s not, we must be able to respond immedi- ately,” said O’Connoll. The canal is one of the world’s busiest and most congested areas for sea traffic, so security is a little more height- ened than at a normal straits transit, according to Churchill’s Weapons Officer, Lt.
