Are there any Mern, Praesto parish records available before 1814?  It appears that records should exist back to 1617, but I haven't found any online.

Could the records be found in a different county?  This FamilySearch Wiki indicates it was part of Vordingborg from 1662-1793, but I can't find any records for a county known by that name:  https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Mern_Parish,_Pr%C3%A6st%C3%B8,_Denmark_Genealogy

It seems the old church books burned in the fire of the vicarage 1847:

Mern (Baarse H.). F 1814-91; K 1815-91; V 1814-91; D 1814-91.
Pgd. brændte 15. Febr. 1727 og 31. Aug. 1847

- source: https://www.dis-danmark.dk/intro/danmarks_kirkeboeger.pdf

There are a number of records prior to 1814 (copied from other sources) in the beginning of the church book 1814 - 1837:

Do not forget to look into the Military Levying Rolls available for the parish:

- Vordingborg County 1791 - 1803 lægd no 34
  Search for 'Vordingborg' on the Rigsarkivet web-site using this link https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/other/index-creator/170/156352/16481031
- Præstø County 1804 - 1851 lægd no 71
   and search 'Præstø' on the same site to see the rolls for the next period
