"He was born in Haderslev, Sonderjylland, Denmark. He married Marie Catherine Juhl on 19 Jun 1858 in Germany or Denmark.
Juhl, located three miles east of Germania in Elmer Township, was a Danish settlement. It was founded in 1882 by Jens C. Juhl, who came here directly from Denmark with his wife and six children. Juhl operated a general store and served as the town's first postmasster. A post office was maintained at Juhl from 1883 to 1906. As many as 100 families lived in Juhl community at one time. Portions of the old general store, a church and some other buildings still stand today at the place where Juhl once flourished."

Med grundlæggeer af Juhl, Elmer Township.
Juhl is a historical settlement in the township at 43°21′35″N 82°56′47″W[5] Juhl was founded in 1882 by Jens C. Juhl, a native of Denmark. It became a Danish community, with as many as a hundred families from Denmark living there. A post office operated from February 1889 until June 1906

Beskæftigelse:
The little town of Juhl has all but vanished. The first settlers in the area were Danish who came here in 1881 and the village was soon named after one of the settlers, Jens C. Juhl. The town grew and became home to over one hundred Danish families; the town also had a church, general store/post office and school, with farming as the main occupation and source of income. The post office ran from 1889 until 1906; once it shut down, the town began it's decline. Nowadays all the businesses are go
Juhl can be found to this day in Elmer Township, Sanilac County at the corner of Juhl & Frenchline Roads. It's lonesome & desolate but it may bring some good photo ops for ya
