Juel Jensen blev født i Hosby, As sogn og døbt i As kirke 3. juledag 1748, og han var den yngste af Jens Kusks store børneflok. Forældre: Jens Hansen Kusk og Maren Jensdatter.
Han blev trolovet til Maren Jensdatter i 1786 ved kongelig bevilling den 29. november 1786 i As kirke. Det må antages, , at grunden til den kongelige bevilling var, at de var nærtbeslægtede, idet Juel Jensens far Jens Hansen Kusk var bror til Maren Jensdatters farfar Juul Hansen. Vielsen er dog ikke fundet.
Maren Jensdatter blev født i Overby, As sogn og døbt i As kirke 24. søndag efter trinitatis 1759 (25. november). Forældre: Jens Juulsen og Ingeborg Rasmusdatter.
Hun fik en datter døbt Kirsten i As kirke den 28 maj 1780. Peder Rasmussen i Overby blev udlagt som barnefar.
Ved folketællingen i 1787, der fandt sted den 1. juli, boede de på den gård i Rårup by, som Juel Jensen havde fæstet fra Palsgård, og da var de blevet gift. Vi ved dog fra reserverullen for 1787 fra Palsgård , at Juul Jensen på 37 år opholdt sig i Hosby den 25. april 1787, så et gæt er, at Juel Jensen og Maren Jensdatter er blevet gift et sted mellem 25. april og 1. juli 1787. De fik tre drenge:

1. Jens Juelsen (født 14.10.1787 i Rårup, død 25.12.1873 i Rårup). Han blev 24.10.1818 gift i Rårup med Gunder Kirstine Rasmusdatter (født 20.11.1794, død 23.3.1857). Jens Juulsen var 1818-1822 forpagter af Høbjerg Mølle, Elsborg sogn, men overtog i 1822 gården Annasminde i Åstrup, Rårup sogn efter sin svigerfar, Rasmus Nielsen Hamborg. De fik seks børn.
2. Hans Juelsen (født 1790 i Rårup, død 19.8.1870 i Rårup). Han blev den 2.11.1816 gift i Rårup med Johanne Marie Jørgensdatter (født 1777, død 19.5.1860). Efter hendes død i 1860 giftede Hans Juulsen sig den 25.5.1861 i Rårup med Anne Marie Jørgensen (født 26.3.1837 i Ørnsvig, Rårup sogn, død 16.6.1906 i Rårup). Hans Juulsen boede i Rårup og fik fire børn.
3. Jens Jørgen Juelsen (født 6.1.1792 i Rårup, død før 1845). Han blev gift 4.5.1816 i Rårup med Mette Catrine Pedersdatter, og de boede på en gård i Skævlund, Rårup sogn. De fik seks børn.

Efter Juul Jensens død i marts 1792 giftede Maren sig samme år (3. august 1792) i Rårup kirke med Jens Nielsen fra Boller, som dermed overtog fæstet af gården. Han var søn af Niels Johannesen og Karen Hansdatter i Nebel, Rårup sogn, og født i 1768.
De fik børnene:

1. Juul Jensen (hj.døbt 26.5.1793 i Rårup, fremstillet 14.7.1793 i Rårup kirke, begr. 2.2.1794). Han blev ¾ år gammel.
2. Karen Jensdatter (hj.døbt 12.5.1794, fremstillet 15.6.1794 i Rårup kirke, begr. 25.5.1795). Hun blev 1 år gammel.
3. Niels Jensen (hj.døbt 21.1.1796, fremstillet 13.3.1796 i Rårup kirke).
4. Inger Marie Jensdatter (født 4.6.1798 og hj.døbt 5.6.1798, fremstillet 22.7.1798 i Rårup kirke).

Ved folketællingen i 1801 var sønnen Jens kommet ud at tjene hos Niels Thomasen (ane nr. 36) i Rårup, men ellers bestod husstanden udover husbond og hans kone af hendes uægte datter Kirsten på 18 år, hendes sønner Hans (11 år) og Jens Jørgen Juulsen (9 år) af første ægteskab, samt deres fælles børn Niels på 5 år og Inger Marie på 2 år. Der var også en 22–årig tjenestekarl ved navn Peder Sørensen.
Maren Jensdatter døde den 26. maj 1816 og blev begravet på Rårup kirkegård den 3. juni 1816.

Juel Jensen was born in Hosby and in the parish of As. He was christened in the church on December 27, 1748. His parents were Jens Hansen Kusk and Maren Jensdatter. He was the youngest one of their many children. He was betrothed to Maren Jensdatter in the church of As on November 29, 1786. They had been given royal licence. It is believed, that they had to get a royal licence because they were closely related. The father of Juel Jensen, Jens Hansen Kusk, was a brother to Maren Jensdatters paternal grandfather, Juul Hansen. The date of their wedding is not found. Maren Jensdatter was born in Overby in the parish of As. She was christened on November 25, 1759. Her parents were Jens Juulsen and Ingeborg Rasmusdatter. Her daughter Kirsten, was christened in the church of As on May 28, 1780. The alleged father was Peder Rasmussen in Overby. Juel Jensen and Maren Jensdatter settled in a farm in Raarup under the manor of Palsgaard. Juul Jensen died on March 21, 1792, in an age of only 42. He was buried in the churchyard of Raarup on March 28, 1792. On August 3, that same year, Maren Jensdatter married Jens Nielsen from Boller. With this marriage Jens Nielsen took over the copyhold of the farm. From the census paper in 1801 we know, that her eldest son, Jens was in the service of Niels Thomsen from Raarup (ancestor no 36), Maren and Jens Nielsen had two children together, namely Niels, 5 years old and Inger Marie, 2 years old. Maren Jensdatter's eldest daughter, Kirsten lived here, too. Maren died on May 26, 1816 and was burried in the churchyard of Raarup on June 3, 1816. Johanne Marie Jorgensdatter was married in the church of Raarup on November 25, 1797 to Peder Rasmussen. He was born around the year of 1773. He was a farmer in Raarup at the time of his death, which was on April 26, 1810.
Accordingly to the census paper from 1801, they had at least one son, Rasmus Pedersen, born about 1799.
Johanne Marie was married again on July 7, 1810 in the church of Raarup to Lars Olesen from Molsted. He was born about 1774 and died in Raarup on March 17, 1816.
On February 28, 1817 Hans Juulsen was given the copyhold of a farm in Raarup from the manor of Boller. Actually he took over the copyhold from his wife's late husband. He bound himself to rebuild the old ramshackled farmhouse at his own expense.
Hans and Johanne Marie had three children together: Maren Kirstine Hansdatter (born 2/14/1817), Juhl Hansen (born 2/1/1819, died 3/28/1895) and Jens Hansen Juul (born 1/4/1823, died 10/21/1901). Johanne Marie Jorgensdatter died in May 19,1860 in Raarup and was buried in the churchyard cemetery on May 26, 1860. Juhl Hansen, (son of Hans and Johanne Marie) had a son when he became a widower. That son's name was Hans Juulsen (same name as his grandfather). Juhl then met and married the widow Kathrine Skov Jorgensen who had six children from her previous marriage.
On May 25, 1861 Hans Juulsen (born 4/6/1790) married one of Kathrine Skov Jorgensen's daughters. Her name was Ane Marie. In other words, Hans married his son's stepdaughter. Ane Marie was born on March 26, 1837 in Raarup on the farm called Ornsvig. Hans was 47 years older than the young Ane Marie. On October 13, 1862 Ane Marie gave birth to a son. They named him Jorgen Juul Hansen.
Juhl Hansen’s son from his first marriage, Hans Juulsen, married Kathrine who was the daughter of Kathrine Skov Jorgensen from her first marriage. The two Hans Juulsens with the same name caused some confusion so they were referred to as "Old Hans Juhl" and "Little Hans Juhl". It has been said that when Juhl Hansen drove to Raarup to visit his father, Old Hans Juhl (that is Hans Juulsen) he would say: "I am going down to visit both of my son-in-laws."
Old Hans Juulsen died August 19, 1870. He was buried in the churchyard of Raarup on August 25,1870. As to the administration of his estate: Its worth was estimated at a sum of 1600 Rigsdaler [rix-dollar]. There was 770 Rigsdaler for the children after the expenses were subtracted and his widow had received her inheritance (one-half). However, his widow increased this sum to 200 Rigsdaler to each child. The inheritance of the under age son, Jorgen Juul Hansen, was to remain in the estate. In return he had a first mortgage on the property.
Ane Marie Jorgensen (Old Hans Juulsen's widow) died on June 16, 1906. Their son Jorgen Juul Hansen had no descendants when he passed away.
So Ane Marie Jorgensen was married to her stepfather's father and Kathrine Jorgensen was married to her stepfather's son.
Old Hans Juhl as well as Little Hans Juhl had children. Their mothers were sisters and they were also cousins.

Hans Juulsen's son, Jorgen Juul Hansen, was the half-brother of Juhl Hansen in Ornsvig. At the same time he was a paternal uncle to Little Hans Juhl, who was 22 years older than him. Little Hans Juhl made a show of being uncle to his own paternal uncle, as his wife Kathrine was a sister to the mother of Jorgen Juul Hansen, namely Ane Marie. Old Hans Juhl was great-grandfather to the children of Little Hans Juhl. Therefore, his wife was their "great grand-mother", but she was the sister of their mother, and that is what she was called (in Danish: Moster).
