Christening, Taars parish register, page 99. Jens Pedersen is christened on September 30th, 1792. He would have been born a few months before this. I know that he was born in Taars according to the census documents. We have a family group sheet that also has this same information from Lena Marie Hansen Pack in 1981. From the census documents I know his birth is about 1792 and this is the only Jens born around that time in Taars. I think I can make out the names of Peder Jensen and Kirsten Pedersdatter in the first line which are the names of his parents on the family group sheet.
1801 Taars parish census. The 7th family on the page is Peder ? (In the indexed version it's Skoven) who is 36, his wife Kirsten Pedersdatter, age 40, Jens Pedersen who is 8, Christen Pedersen who is 3. There is a Sidsel Pedersdatter who is living with them who is 45 who I don't think was a family member but living with them out of "charity." They are living in the village of Sessing.
Marriage, Bjergby parish register, page 112. Jens Pedersen age 28 from Taars parish married Dorthe Hansdatter on Oct 29, 1820. Peder Jensen is present from Taars parish, probably Jens father. I've searched the birth registry from this parish and Taars and have only found one birth between them in those places as shown below:
Birth, Taars parish register page 44. The first name is Hans Peter Jensen born April 19, 1825 to Jens Pedersen and Dorthe Hansdatter of Hovelsbaarn (?). This is their only child that I have found between them. They could have lived in a different parish and had children that didn't survive but that would require searching the parish registers where they lived (I don't) and finding them.
Death, Taars parish register, Opslag 177. Dorth Hansdatter passes away on May 1, 1825 and is buried May 8. This event occurred just a few weeks after the birth of Hans. She lived in Hovedbaarn. I think she was 27. No cause of death was given--perhaps related to a complication from childbirth? I do not know where she was born yet or anything about her family but I'll work on it. Jens remarries which I will show in my next post.
