Roholte Branch (1854-1863)
Roholte is town and parish south of Copenhagen. It is a farming district with some forest reserve belonging to the government. The nearest market towns to Roholte are Præstø and Fakse. A small, low, stony peninsula called Feddet running out into the Præstø bay, belongs to the Roholt parish and it was on this peninsula that the organization of the Roholte Branch took place.
The new members in this area were previously part of the Sønder Overdrev Branch, however they were located so far from the main location that it was inconvenient for the members to attend meetings in Sønder Overdrev. Because of this, the Roholte Branch was organized in a special meeting 1 Mar 1854 in the home of Morten Jensen on Feddet, attended by about a dozen newly baptized members of the church who resided in that neighborhood. Elder Christian D. Fjelsted, who labored as a traveling Elder in that part of Sjælland, presided over the meeting. Elder Adolph Grønbeck was appointed as the new branch president. For some time the Roholte branch included the small cities of Køge, St. Heddinge, Præstø, and Vordingborg.
On 10 Jul 1854 the parish priest in Roholte parish (Carl Adolph Gjellerup, priest in Roholte since 1833) sent in a report for the bishop concerning the Mormon influence in his parish:
During this spring the Mormons began to spread their delusion in Roholte Parish. A corrupt and nearly crazy person from the parish here was the first who while in Copenhagen was seduced into being baptized, presumably so that they could have a place to reside here in the parish with him. As he lives on a peninsula, nearly a (Danish) mile long, on which lies a large farm and a few houses, the Mormon emissaries found a hang-out with him from which they have further spread themselves on that peninsula which residents mostly are made up of working cottagers who have come in from other parishes. When I heard the the aforementioned person had gone over to the Mormons, I visited him to talk with him, but I immediately realized that neither with him nor his wife was they anything to do as they answered everything I said with that the Mormon's teachings were the only correct. His step-son, the woman's own son, who made preparations for me and was quite a diligent boy was then held back from the education when he should be confirmed. I asked them they turned over the boy to me I would take care of him which he also desired but the completely refused. Yet a short while later the boy came himself to me and asked for me to keep him, which I did and he was not forced to go back. He later went to (work for) a farmer here in town and was confirmed last Easter. I am completely convinced that the parents alone held the hope of an early opportunity to go to America and be free from work and with the exception of 2 men, I have reason to suppose that a hope for a more prosperous existence in the promised land by the salt lake has had an thoughtful influence with all those who have gone over to the Mormons. One man whom I have often visited earlier had belonged to the enlightened and been a diligent cantor, but also was visibly troubled and wavering. After having been with him several times I had the best hope about him as he also enjoyed my visits to him, so I was grateful for that until I suddenly heard that he had been baptized with his wife. Of the 10 men who have gone over to the Mormons, 8 are married and as far as I could tell most of the wives have gone over just to follow their husbands. Altogether there are thus 18 persons gone over, but of them only 6 belong here to the parish, the others had recently come in as laborers on the farm at (peninsula) Fjed, which lies nearly 1 (Danish) mile from Roholte. Of the young people, none have gone over to the Mormons, but so far none have yet returned of those who have gone over.
Of other sects, none have shown up here in the parish.
During the year 1854 Elders Mads Jørgensen and J. Rosengren labored as missionaries in the district to which Roholte Branch belonged and took an active part in the council meetings. On 25 Mar 1855 priest Jens Nielsen was called to labor in this district as a missionary under the direction of the branch president Peter Nielsen. In the 1855 census there were 15 Mormons listed as living in the parish.
Following are the names of the branch presidents who served in this branch:

Søren Olsen 1863
At a priesthood meeting held in Christianshavn 20 Apr 1857 the members who lived in Stevns district (herred), which was part of Roholte Branch at that time, was separated off to become the Stevns Branch. Elder Niels Nielsen was the branch president of Roholte Branch at the time and also acted as the presiding missionary in the district. On 7 Oct 1857 Niels Nielsen was released as traveling presiding missionary and Elder Lars Chr. Madsen took over the 5th missionary district of the Copenhagen Conference which included the area covered by the Roholte and Stevns Branches.
During this time period and for several years previously council meetings for the branch were nearly all held on the peninsula Feddet. On 8 May 1859 Hans Thønnesen, the previous branch president of Roholte Branch, was appointed to take charge of the 5th missionary district of the Copenhagen Conference.
On 14 Sep 1861 the Roholte Branch was again divided, the southern part being organized as the Vordingborg Branch with Elder Christoffer Jensen Kempe as President.
On 20 Sep 1863 the former missionary districts were organized into branches so that the Roholte and Vordingborg Branches were combined to become the south or Syd Sjælland Branch.
