In 1715-1786 Hundborg-Jannerup, Hundborg, Thisted register opslag 359 top of page records 3 & 4 I have the entry for a set of twins. They are called Jens and Niel.

There is information that is given that I can not interpret and would appreciate anyone's help. I have the following Danish transcription attempt:

Ao 1754

No 3 og 4- d: 29 Decemb er Villads Jensen og Mette
Nielsdatter 2nd ?? ?? døbt i Jannerup kirke
drengen kaldet JENS og den andre NIELS. Rageill Forhens=
datter ?? ?? bar Jens og Anne Pedersdatter
?? ?? ?? bar Niels. Fadderene
?? ?? , Christen ??, ?? Jensen
Christen Jensen, Peder ?? ?? Søn, Inger
Pedersdatter og Ingeborg Søn. Konen død ??

English:

Year 1754

No 3 & 4 On the 29th of December Villads Jensen and Mette Nielsdatter (2nd ?? ??) had two small boys christened in the Jannerup church and named them; JENS and the other NIEL. Rageill Forhensdatter ?? ?? carried Jens and ?? Pedersdatter ?? ?? ?? carried Niels. The witnesses were: ?? ?? , Christen ??, ?? Jensen, Christen Jensen, Peder ?? ?? Søn, Inger Pedersdatter and Ingeborg Søn. The wife died in delivery (?).

Is this a christening record or a birth record? The reason I ask is if my assumption is correct that she died in delivery, then why would she be listed as having them christened? If she died shortly after the christening then I need to dig deeper for her death record.

Thank you for any insight and your help with the transcription and translation...

Year 1754

No 3 & 4 On the 29th of December Villads Jensen and Mette Nielsdatter had two twins christened in the Jannerup church and named them; JENS and the other NIEL. Rageill Torbensdatter, wife of the teacher, carried Jens and Anne Pedersdatter, wife of Niels Klovborg, carried Niels. The witnesses were: Frederik Clauesen, Christen Pedersen, Niels Jensen, Christen Jensen, Peder Niels Klovborgs son, Inger
Pedersdatter og Ingeborg Søe. The wife died immediately.

It is a christening record. Birth record are very rare at this time.
I think there must be a burial record too, but I have not been looking for it.
