I am searching for the Birth/Baptismal entry for Maren Jensdatter.

Her Parents are Jens Christensen and Inger Christensdatter. This is surmised from the 1787 Census for Thisted where she is listed as the "dependent sister" of Christen Jensen  http://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid200104.

I have located his Birth/Baptismal entry in the 1720-1783 Østerild, Hillerslev, Thisted img 51 pg  48-#6, https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1961-33524-11685-62?cc=2078555&wc=M5K6-16K:357516601,359600201,359780601,359786501 where his parents are given as "Jens Christensen og Inger Christensd:". Because there are several "Jens Christensen" my Jens Christensen goes by "Jens Hoxer"

They have a 2nd child, Anne Jensdatter, born 17 Feb 1754 in Østrild https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-8944-XDTW?i=54&owc=collection%2F2078555%2Fwaypoints&wc=M5K6-16K%3A357516601%2C359600201%2C359780601%2C359786501&cc=2078555

I tried locating Maren Jensdatter, their 3rd child, in the Østerild register with no success.

I surmise that they moved to Sennels as both Jens Christensen and Inger Christensdatter died in Sennels and I have their Death/Burial entries from the Sennels register. Hence, I believe they may have had their 3rd child namely, Maren Jensdatter as identified in the 1787 Census there after moving to Sennels.

In the Sennels register I have located an entry that I believe may be for her: 1727-1772 Sennels, Hillerslev, Thisted img 19 pg  xx-#4 https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-L94H-H7KQ?i=18&wc=M5K6-16K%3A357516601%2C359600201%2C359780601%2C359786501&cc=2078555

I have transcribed this entry as:

Year: 1756
Numb: 4
d: 3 April Jens Hoxer og Inge barn ?? Christensdatter, Datter født til
Daaben af 7de April og kaldet Magrethe Marie, baren af Jomfure
?? paa Nor Ullerupgaard. Faddere Mons: Niels Schonsted, Johan Henrick
Storse, Peder Bode og Anne Sophie paa Nor Ullerupgaard

I would appreciate someone reviewing my transcription and correct it where needed. AND, the big question that I have is: Is this the Birth/Baptismal entry for Maren Jensdatter?

I am not sure if the Parents names are correct and if Maren, the name from the 1787 Census, is the Margrethe Marie of this entry. Could she be going by a shorter name of Maren?

Any help and insight would be appreciated....Thank you....

In the last inscription from Sennels Jens Hoxers wife is called Ingeborre Christensdatter, and at the other pabtism inscriptions she is only called Inger .

And the woman is jomfru Søltoft paa Nor Ullerupgaard, and Johan Henrk (Henric) is called Store -(which means big or great)-mons. Niels could also be Schousted as he put an ecu over the u and he does'nt do it over the n .

But I don't think that normallly Margrethe Marie would be called Maren- maybe Marie  - but of course it coulden't happen, so that remains an uncertanty

The birth is still a bit of a mystery, but Maren's confirmation surely is in Østerild 1768-1814(68), image 245 for 1773 #28.

She is listed as Maren, Jens Christensens Datter i Hoxer, 15 Aar. 

That largely agrees with the 1787 census where ages are listed as year entered into, yielding a birth in 1757.

Hi Ralph

It might be so, that the name Margrethe is too "fine"/solmenn for an ordinary girl or a farmer girl, and it is often seen that parents calls their children another name but the name it is  pabtised- so I could believe that also Maria is a bit too "fine" or solemn.

Often we met inscripions in he churchbooks which puzzles us and doesn't fix proberly in.
As you write I also believe hat i'ts the correct baptism for Margrethe/Maren

Have a nice Christmas
