Niels and Ane Elise's Third Child

Birth, Vester Velling parish, page 194. Birth of an unnamed child to Niels and Ane on June 17, 1846. I believe in the name column are the words dodt fodt which means stillborn. I learned from Elaine McIver that sometimes children were considered Stillborn in Denmark if they were born alive but died before they were christened.

Death, Vester Velling parish, page 194. The death of this child is listed as July 30, 1846. There is not a name listed in the name column. The infant was buried August 5, 1846. Niels Jensen is listed in the right column and the childs age is listed as 5 weeks. I'll need the Danish translation for this one.
