Needing help in completion of Birth transcription

[Lynn Christiansen]

I have two census records for Jens Mortensen 1787 and 1801 both in Harlev, Framlev, Aarhus. The 1787 census indicates he was born 1751 and the 1801 census indicates 1759

In Family Tree they give a Christening date and location as 31 May 1850 in Gerding, Aalborg. I have located an entry at 1746-1779 Gerding-Blenstrup, Hellum, Aalborg img 11 pg xx left page 1st entry under Maÿ also https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/billedviser?bsid=160284#160284,26942192 image 11.

I need my feeble attempt at a Danish Transcription completed and corrected. I have

Year: 1750
Maÿiis
d 31 Maÿ Confirmerede ?? ?? Gierding
kirke ?? Morten Gierding og drenge
barn og daab; sam ??  til ??
var hiemme døbt und nafe JENS, ?? bar
??  Himelstrup
?? med Eisbeth Dorthe Mørch mandsfader
Christen ??, Poul Lund? og Peder
Jensen alle af Gierding

Once I have this transcribed I can then go through the process of verifying that they are one and the same person. I find the Christening in Aalborg and Census information in Aarhus somewhat unique. Two different Amts somewhat spread apart.

Any help with the transcription would be appreciated.
