Ane Jensdatter: Distant relative of Afton Hansen Nelson

Roskilde parish register, page 177.  Marriage.  Ane Jensdatter is married to Peder Andersen.  Ane was the first child of Jens Mortensen and Sidse Jacobsdatter.  In the interest of time in the future, I will post 1 image and write most of the information I find with the locations.  The information will be updated in Family Search.   Ane was born in April 6, 1820 in Svogerslev parish.  She was married to Peder as above.  The marriage record has the name of her brother Hans Jensen who lived in Jorgensbjerg.  Peder and Ane move there and have two children, Peder Soren Pedersen b September 1852 and Anders Pedersen b September 10, 1858.  No other children are found in the records from 1851-1861.  Her husband Peder was born February 1821 in Gershoj parish.  Peder's parents are found in the 1834 and 1845 Gershoj census.  They were married November 17, 1818 (Page 49 Gershoj parish register) and they had two children Ane Andersdatter and Peder.  Peder's fathers name was Anders born in Saebye parish and Dorthe born in Schibye in Frederikborg county.  
I find Ane and Peder in the 1860, 1870, and 1880 Skt Jorgensbjerg census.  I have yet to find their death records.
