Søren Nielsen is my 3rd Great Grandfather.

I have the following information on him:
Birth: about 1781 in Balle, Hids, Viborg {from Census information}
1787 Census in Balle: http://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid47538
1801 Census in Balle: http://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid1104729
Marriage to Ane Jensdatter on 19 Nov 1808 in Balle: http://www.danishfamilysearch.com/sogn1948/churchbook/source130981/opslag14010317
1834 Census in Balle: http://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid2389680
1840 Census in Balle: http://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid3953445
1845 Census in Balle: http://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid5045515
1850 Census in Balle: http://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid7119346
and Death/Burial in Balle on 7 Feb 1852: http://www.danishfamilysearch.com/sogn1948/churchbook/source130986/opslag14010904

I have been able to follow and document the major events in his life except his birth/baptism. I have looked at the 1742-1813 Balle-Gødvad, Hids, Viborg parish register and have located no entry for his birth.

Any suggestions/help?

Thank you.....

This is the parish record in which events before 1790 are copied or reconstructed from partial previous bits.  And there possibly was a usable book for Balle, in such a way that folio 117-134b refers only to Gødvad.

An open question is what sort of confirmation record there was or is from 1790 forward to 1813/1814.

Thanks Ralph---what I take from your comments and the respective parish register is that there may not be records for Balle during that time period. Confirmations are not included in this register and do not appear to begin until 1814 to late to cover his confirmation.

Again thanks for your feedback
