Trouble locating the correct Jens Nielsen

Hello,

I have a Jens Nielsen that was born 20 Mar 1834 in Slaglille, Alsted, Sorø, Denmark (per the 1860 Census).  However, his marriage record indicates he was vaccinated 3 Jul 1835 in Bojesen?  Confirmed in Sorterup in 1848.  Not only could I not find a birth record in Slaglille for 20 Mar 1834, but I also could not find his confirmation in Sorterup for 1848.  And does anyone know where/what Bojesen? is?

There is a birth record for a Jens Nielsen on 30 Mar 1835 in Slaglille but that is 10 days different from the birth date on his marriage and a year later.

I also could not locate a death record for him.  He died sometime between 1870 and 1872 when his widow, Mette Margrethe Nielsdatter, remarried (I tried that handy death database lookup and had no luck).  I could not locate an 1870 Census record (they should be in Aunslev) to see if his birthplace was different than Slaglille. 

It seems straight forward that the Jens Nielsen on the 1860 Census is the one Mette Margrethe married but I am having trouble reconciling the marriage record information with what is on the Census.

His marriage to Mette Margrethe Nielsdatter here (#27 at the very bottom): https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?bsid=440717#440717,79753640

Thanks you so much Hans.  I saw that Jens Jensen but dismissed it because I was looking for Jens Nielsen.  I should have looked at the name of the father.  How tragic that he killed himself.
