The painter Alhed Larsen, née Warberg, married Johannes Larsen (1867–1961) in 1898. Her childhood home Erikshåb became a gathering place for a group of painters, who later became the artist group “Fynboerne”. As early as 1885, she took classes with Fritz Syberg (1862–1939). In the early 1890s, she went to Copenhagen, where she worked as a glaze painter at Den Kongelige Porcelænsfabrik (Royal Copenhagen).

Elisa Hansen, née Schoubye, married Peter Hansen in 1898. She took an active part in exhibitions and sales of her husband's paintings.
