This is Ane Jensdatter. I can't read the date. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QS7-994W-8XGG?i=298&cc=2078555

It's on page 299, right side (record page 289).

    The date is Midfaste Sond(ag) which is exactly 21 days (3 Sundays) before Easter. In 1806 that would be 16 March. See the Moveable Feast Days calendar here: https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Denmark:_Moveable_Feast_Days_in_1806 . It is also know as Laetare.
