Jørgen Poulsen - death

[Hansine]

Can someone please transcribe and translate the words in the 'Remarks' column for the death of Jorgen Poulsen?

His death record is in the parish of Rudkøbing, 1858 - 1892, opslag 102, 1873, Record # 10.

I have translated the rest of the death record as follows:

Date of death: 9 August 1873
Date of burial: 15 August
Name: Jorgen Poulsen
Occupation: Baadfører (sea man)
Age: 77
Jevnførelses Register: 201-222
Remarks? ____

And please let me know if I have made a mistake in my translation above.
Thanks so much.

Hi Hansine,

I would translate Baadfører as 'boatman'.

Remark: eget Gravsted (own burial place).

Best regards,
Inger T.

Would this have been unusual to be buried in a place other than the local church cemetery?

Hi again,

I interprete the record as follows: He (or his family) had acquired a burial place of their own at the local cemetery.

The remark for most people is alm. Række (almindelig Række). I'm not quite sure of the meaning of this, but it's a description of where the persons were buried in the cemetery.
