I am having a difficult time finding the second marriage of my 4th great grandfather Niels Olsen. His first wife Anna Johansdatter died December 1732.

Burial of Anna Johansdatter 15 Dec 1732 Sorø, Øster Flakkebjerg, Herlufsholm  Enesteministerialbog (1675 FVD - 1747 FVD)   page 240 (488) middle left

In January 1734 his daughter Anna was born.

Baptism of Anna Nielsdatter 24 Jan 1734 Sorø, Øster Flakkebjerg, Herlufsholm  Enesteministerialbog (1675 FVD - 1747 FVD)   page 108 (214) upper right

So sometime between December 1733 and January 1734 he remarried. I have looked several times at the Betrothal /Marriage records for Herlufsholm starting in 1733 and ending in 1734. I can find a a number of entries that have the name Niels Olsen (Olufsen) but I am not able to read them well enough to tell if he is the groom or a witness. Would someone, who is better than I at reading written Danish, kindly look at the records starting on page 159 and ending on page 161 and tell me if any record or which record is his marriage and the name of his bride.

On 6 May 1749 there is an entry for the burial of Niels Olsen's wife, Engle Nielsdatter, so that might be the name of the 1733 bride.

Thank you for the help

Hi Paul

I certainly think, that Niels Olufsens 2. wife was Engel Nielsdatter, who was buried May 6,1749 - age 37.

At https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?bsid=151334#151334,25141340 bottom left in 1735 you see on Jan.1 Hans Olufsen tailor's from Lillenestved his son Oluf being baptized, carried by Maria Clemmend Bang's and Engel Niels Olufsen's went by.

And going back to ops.107 right on Nov.1 in 1733 you see Engel Niels Olufsen's from Lillenestved going by too. So they must have been married before that in 1733 somewhere.

But their marriage (1733) cannot be seen in the records in Herlufsholm - and I also looked in the surrounding parishes Fodby, Vallensved, Gunderslev, Næstved, Rønnebæk and Holme Olstrup without succes.

mvh Ole

Ole,

Mange tak for hjælpen. I also looked at the surrounding parish but my ability to read Danish particularly old hand written Danish is not very good so I wasn't sure if I was missing something. So again, thanks for looking.
