Hi Beth,
Try this site with church books and censuses www.arkivalieronline.dk. It's free, but you need to sign up as a user. For instructions: www.utilis.dk.
Arnum is in Højrup parish, Tønder county and
Roost is Arrild parish, Tønder county. Both in Hvidding district.
Censuses you will find on www.ddd.dda.dk, but they are only available on the internet up to and including 1930.
Finding a place name use this site: www.krabsen.dk.
