Help with Probate record translation
The following probate 2 Oct 1762, is for Thoger Pedersen (MJD7-YH2) I can recognize that this is the correct person and it identifies his two younger children Malene age 20 and Birgithe age 18. Any additional information is appreciated. The first child is a 24 yrst olf male Peder Thogersen, it looks like there is a 24 year old person identified in the document just before the daughters are identified, but I am unable to read who it is. Peder Thogersen married in 1774, but that could be a second marriage.

Your link is to the baptisms in 1744 and 1745 for Jerslev in Hjørring, rather than to a probate.

Norm Baker, Thank You, not quite sure how I managed that, but I have now attached the correct document for the probate record.

Wow, what a mess! Too bad about the water damage-that complicates things quite a bit.
The first name that I am able to make out that seems to be a child looks like "-der Thogersen 24 years old"-That is probably the Peder in your question. That is followed by "Malene (?) Thogersdatter (the surname is an assumption really, as it is so damaged as to be illegible) 20 years, Anne Birgitte Togersdatter 18 years old all at home in Bersboen/Berfboen (?)." Knowing the parish where they lived, may help in identifying the farm/village.
I don't readily see any other names that might be children. I can see a name that is possibly his widow but can only make out a surname "-edersdatter", probably "Pedersdatter".
