Hi Paul and Lis,

Will try to translate the excellent transcription made by Lis:

Bachelor Niels Jensen of Aaside (a locality) - 25 years old

The widow after (the past) Husmand (smallhouse farmer) Thorkild Nielsen,
Kirsten Pedersen in Aaside, 54 years of age

with best men Farmer Christian Hansen of Aaside and Mr. Lund in Askov Mill

did agree to discontinue the connection (engagement) 

- so they never got married!

This is quite unusual ....

best regards

Bjørn

Question: If they decided not to marry why is that listed in the church book with marriages? Why did they have best men listed? Was this something that was required at this time in Denmark?

The next page https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1942-33505-25723-84?cc=2078555&wc=M5KZ-3YP:357517501,359241901,359699001,359720201 has her marrying Niels Hansen.

Hi

She was first written to marrigae with Niels JENSEN at at next page with Niels HANSEN

Bestmen is written when you request to get married.

Why they changed minds can have many reasons - maybe he thought she was too old?? or she thought he was to Young - WHO knows

Thank you. Very interesting.
