Thanks so much Claus. Wondering if there is a mistake in the records as it stands now the mother Maren Hansdatter of Rasmus Christoffersen would have been 9 years old when she had him. Could be possible I suppose!
Regards Judy
Maren Hansdatter is given as a widow after two marriages, and sounds like the stepmother of the head of the house (husbonde) and has a life care arrangement (aftægt). That's something to follow up on, e.g. in the 1787 census.
PS - cancel that, given this 1787 data:
odense, Skovby, Skovby, Skaarup, -, F 2, FT-1787, A3170
Navn: Alder: Civilstand: Stilling i husstanden: Erhverv
Rasmus Christophersen 38 g Huusbond Gaardmand
Maria Andersdatter 23 g Madmoder -
Christopher Rasmussen 9 - Barn af 1. ægteskab -
Johanna Rasmusdatter 3 - Barn af 1. ægteskab -
Maren Hansdatter 66 e Mandens moder -
Jørgen Christophersen 23 u Mandens broder -
Ingeborg Johansdatter 23 u - Tienestefolk
Grethe Mortensdatter 13 - - Tienestefolk
66+14=80, a more plausible age.
That makes sense that she would be the stepmother, I am looking in the census for more information . Thanks Ralph

Hi Judy,
The 1801 census is seen here in the BETA viewer on Arkivalieronline: http://www.sa.dk/ao/billedviser?bsid=26809#26809,2909609
It seems there's a mistake in the age of Maren Hansdatter, as she's 66 years old in the 1787 census:
Odense, Skovby, Skovby, Skaarup, -, F 2, FT-1787, A3170
