The original research here was done by Cora Christofferson from Danish church records.  Since Denmark was one of the last areas of Europe to adopt Catholicism, the records of births and death are limited only to the time beginning with these church records.  These churches later became Lutheran. Most of these records are maintained in local archives and were microfilmed by the LDS. We still have an incomplete history of this family and I look forward to information that can complete the lists of the children.

It is more likely that the following record is for his father
1740 Jan 10 engaged, married April 14.   Christen Pedersen is married to single girl (pigam) Jensdatter of Talborg in Nørre Nissum church, Ringøbing, Denmark. [Dan. Fam. Search. - Nørre Nissum church p.5]
