Please, I need help reading the birth record for Hans Pedersen Wif in Vejle Amt Vejstrup Sogn 1763 1781 opslag 47 #12 (near the middle of the page, listed between 13 and 14).

I can read the birth and baptism date as 30 April 1775.

Please, I need help reading the names of his father and mother and any other information given.

Thank you,
Kelli Wiuff

I'll go with a transcription, and then a translation.

Thanks very much for the help.

I suspected that baby died; but, I do appreciate that you have given me a better understanding of what was written.
