Looking back, parish record 1813-1824, image 14 in Family Search series:

Ole's baptism:  born 23 August 1816, bapt. at home 24 August, presented/baptism confirmed 20 October; parents indsidder [lodger] Kristopher Hansen [w/ nickname] Hilliter? and Karen Olesdatter in Taaderup; witnesses: Miss Else Rasmusdatter in Taaderup presented the child at the font, bachelor Niels Rasmussen of Taaderup, villager Jens Madsen and miss Kirsten Madsdatter in Bruntofte, miss Dorthe Rasmusdatter in Tingsted  [smallpox vaccination date, often important in checking marriages, may be in another, older, register]

Overup is a larger farm/farmstead about a half mile southwest of Tingsted church.  Taaderup is about the same distance northeast.

At that time the children had the fathers firstname + sen as a surname, so Olesen is from Ole's first name.

Mary Olsen died 04.04.1859 in Idestrup, Maribo (page 451 new edition) The age on Mary at her dead however is wrong. She should be the 4 year old.

In 1930 Peter and Ellen lives in Gentofte, so maybe you can find the son born here.
