Name of child of Simon Pedersen & Ing Jensdatter?   Bapt 19 Dec 1669,  Is the child female or male?

Ole Westermann

I read it as Jahan - and it may be girl
- see top right among the witnesses: Jahan Jenßdatter and
  bottom left: Jahan Sørensdatter

A female name otherwhere/later written Johanne.

mvh Ole

Ole & Ole,  Mange tak!

I also found that Jahan Jensdatter so I'll go with the female Jahan, but after 350 years does it really matter?

Thanks again & Kindest regard,

Rog
