According to correspondence from Flemming Aasklint of Nykøbing, Sjælland, Denmark, Jens was legally permitted to change his surname to ANDERSEN VULLUM on 24 May 1905. This was done as part of Denmark's national program to eliminate the patronymic name system and replace them with hereditary surnames.
