In the death entry for Peder Christian Nielsen found at 1892-1915 Skjoldborg, Hundborg, Thisted img 217 pg 251-#3 there appears the abbreviation of "Efl" when referring to his wife.

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1951-33678-23244-23?cc=2078555&wc=M529-16X:357516601,358126201,358358801,358259201

I have the following transcription:

Anno: 1893
Numb: 3
Death date: 22 Marts 1893 Skjoldborg By og Sogn Hundborg Herred
Burial date: Skjoldborg Kirkegaard, Hundborg Herred 31 Marts 1893
Name: Peder Kristian Nielsen
Status: Husmand i Skjoldborg By og Sogn, Hundborg Herred. Født i Skyum. Foraldrene Husmand Niels Pedersen Veje og Hustru Anne Kirstine Jensdatter  ??? Hustru Ane Larsen i Skjoldborg
Age: 64 Aar
Presiding: Sognepræsten


Is my transcription of the letters correct? and what does it mean?

Hej Lynn

The abbreviation "efl. Hustru" (efterlevende Hustru) means "surviving wife".

Thank you very much...I was wondering if she was a "surviving" wife or a "deceased" one..... :)
