Help reading a name - 1768 record
I would appreciate some help determining the surname of the groom, Laurs —— in this marriage record. Here is a link to the page - the marriage is the last entry on the right side, married 21 Oct 1768 at Værum, Randers:
sorry I can't add an image of the marriage record. The bride is Margrethe Pedersdatter.
