I have found the following church records (Gjerslev, Randers) for Karen Marie Jensen. Her birth in 1842 https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/billedviser?epid=17123008#162626,27324239
Her confirmation in 1856 https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/billedviser?epid=17123008#162630,27324741
And her leaving the parish in 1866 https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/billedviser?epid=17123008#162631,27324924
My problem is I can't find her or her parents in the Gjerslev censuses. Nay hints or help will be greatly appreciated.
Tusind tak,
Paul
Hi,
When Karen Marie leaves the parish i 1866 it is mentioned that she leaves her mother.
In the 1870 census Maren Andersdatter is here as a widow, so the father Jens Jensen must have died earlier.

Mange tusind tak for din hjælp John. I look through several censuses but never found them. Of course I never looked at the 1870 census. Now back to the church books. Again a million thanks.

Hi Paul,
Maybe Maren Andersdatter is the wrong Maren.
I 1888 a Maren Andersdatter is burried and she was a widow of Jens Christensen.

I apologize for asking the same question twice. I am doing this research for a Danish relative and had completely forgotten the earlier post.
Med venlig hilsen
