Jens Johan Jensen: 4th child of Jens Jensen

Birth, Hvorslev parish register, page 46. Jens Johan Jensen is born February 22, 1865. He is the fourth child born to Jens Jensen and Ane Sophie Jensdatter of Amstrup. She was 32 years old.

Confirmation, Hvorslev parish register, page 89. Jens Johan is confirmed in 1879. I have found a Jens Johan Jensen present at the births of his nephews and nieces thus far. When present he is listed as being of Hvorslev but I have not been able to find him in the 1890, 1901, or 1911 Hvorslev census. Perhaps I will find out what happens to him as I search out the other brothers and sisters.
