I am trying to locate the death record of Christen Pedersen born 1798 Vejle / Tørrild / Nørup parish / Churchbooks / Churchbook 1748 - 1809 Nørup / Page No. 55. I think this is his birth record. I believe he died in 1813 in Nørup. I am learning to read the records in the church books but could not find this one. His parents are Peder Christensen Baastland and Ane Kirstine Madsdatter. Hoping someone can help me find the church record. I don't know Danish but I am learning a few words at a time. Not sure I have even posted this request correctly.
Hi Sandra
Is this the person, you're looking for:
Vejle, Tørrild, Nørup, udfløttere fra Søedouer Bye, , 27, FT-1801, B8716
Navn: Alder: Civilstand: Stilling i husstanden: Erhverv: Fødested:
Peder Christensen 33 Gift Mand Huusmand med jord
Ane Kirstine Madsdatter 34 Gift Hans kone
Christen Pedersen 3 Ugift Deres søn
On page 55 I think it says:
30.de Novem. Peder Christensen Baastlands (?) og hustru Anna Kristine Madsdatters Christen af Castinius hjemmedøbt 22.de Novem.
That might very well be his baptism.

Ellen
Hi Sandra
I do not see Christen Pedersen's death in 1813 in Nørup.
There is a Christen Pedersen's son, who died.
But that is most likely not his son, as he would only be 15 at this time.

Ellen
Hi Sandra,
Christen Pedersen was confirmed in 1813 in Nørup, opslag 208 nr 2.

I thank everyone for responding. For the death date I was relying on information from someone in the family who was doing research and perhaps she was incorrect. I will follow all the leads you have given me.
Hi Sandra,
Here are Christen Pedersen's parents in the 1845 census. Mads Pedersen is their son, born Nørup 26 Dec 1802, opslag 67.
All persons in the household
Vejle, Tørrild, Nørup, Sødouer Mark, et Huus, 42, FT-1834, C0679
Name: Age: Marital status: Pos. in household: Occupation: Birth place:
Mads Pedersen 32 Gift Huusmand
Mette Marie Madsdatter 26 Gift hans Kone
Peder Madsen 6 Ugift deres Børn
Kirstine Madsdatter 4 Ugift deres Børn
Mads Christian Madsen 1 Ugift deres Børn
Madssine Knudsdatter 16 Ugift Tjenestepige
Peder Christensen Baastlund 66 Gift Aftægtsmand
Ane Kirstine Madsdatter 67 Gift hans Kone
The birth of Peder Madsen on 17 Sep 1828 in Nørup, opslag 9 nr 19 may give a clue as to where Christen Pedersen is located. There is a Christen Pedersen listed as one of the witnesses at the baptism. Unfortunately I cannot read where he is from.
Sincerely,
Paul
There is a Peder Baastlund as a witness to the baptism of Kirstine Madsdatter on 5 Aug 1830 in Nørup, opslag 39 nr 13.

Hi Sandra,
This is a perfect case for Muster roll use.
He is first found in Vejle Amt, Lægd/parish 44, tilgangsrulle 1799 (new additions roll) no G111:
http://www.sa.dk/ao/billedviser?epid=16481031#17838,918692
Written as Christian, his fathers name above, and birth date Nov. 30th.
Then you find the next Hovedrulle 1801 (main roll) in:
http://www.sa.dk/ao/billedviser?epid=16481031#17842,919946
Old number G111, new 79
1805:
http://www.sa.dk/ao/billedviser?epid=16481031#17850,922422
new number 61
1808:
http://www.sa.dk/ao/billedviser?epid=16481031#18237,1039838
52
1811:
http://www.sa.dk/ao/billedviser?epid=16481031#17864,926611
Crossed out, died 1814, still in Nørup parish.

Hi Sandra.
I dont think that Christen Pedersen, mentioned as a baptism witness i 1828 in Nørup, is the person you are looking for.
He (the baptism witness) lived at "Sillehus" a farm near Sødover Mark, Nørup parish. He was married in Nørup church the 21 of October 1826 (opsl. 85), he was 24, and came from Ravning in Bredsten parisk, where he was born 1802. He died the 7. of March 1832 in Nørup parish, 30 years old (=born 1802) (opsl.118).
