Next step: check for births in Vejlby, Nødager, Feldballe from 1767-1778.

Child 1: mother not given

Child2: mother = Kirsten Sørensdatter

Child 3-6 + CENSUS 1834 + Conf Record of Jens: mother = Kirsten Jacobsdatter

No death in Feldballe 1801-1804 for anyone named Kirsten Sørensdatter or Søren Laursen’s hustru.

Therefore assume that name was given incorrectly on Søren’s birth record.

Census possibility:
Kirsten Jacobsdatter, age 13 (born 1774) (CENSUS 1787, Refn Bye, Vejlby, Djurs Sønder, Randers, 13, B5103)(Dansk Demografisk Database)
