Quick Translation Request for a birth record note
I was looking at sources for Rasmus Rasmussen https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/L4R3-YDH an noticed that one had a note on it from when it was indexed: "Twin".
I have looked at the record and there is not another child born that day or above or below him in the record that could be his twin. There does seem to be a note written in the last column of the record that I cannot read and I'm hoping someone can tell me what it is so I can rule it out.
Thanks so much for your service!

The comment is "En tvilling = a twin". The other twin doesn't appear in any records. No death or burial record exists of a stillborn child. Nor is there a record of a girl born that day.
The column which lists the page in the Jevnførelses register says to look on page 214 (in the Jevnførelses register). But that page in the Jevnføelses register says that the original birth record is on page 10. However, the birth record you are asking about is on page 12, so that makes me think that there maybe another record of this birth.
The FamilySearch Catalog lists 2 sources covering the births for 1818 in Tvilum. One of them points to your entry on page 12. The other entry is only available on fische at the FamilySearch Library in Salt Lake City. I will look that up next Tuesday when I am there, and I will let you know if there is any more information about the other twin.

I was able to locate the record on the fiche at the FamilySearch LIbrary and it is the exact same version that we already have. So that isn't going to answer any questions about the twin mentioned!. Sorry about that.
However, in searching for more information, I followed Rasmus in the military records and discovered that he moved to Linaa (Linå) parish in 1845. He married Mariane Jensen (Jensdatter) there on 13 July 1845. That marriage record is here (entry #5): https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?bsid=394533#394533,74361523.
This must be her birth record-the father's name (Jens Jensen) and residence (Linaae/Linå Mark) match the information in the marriage record (entry #5): https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?bsid=394520#394520,74361194.

Thank you so much @Norm Baker! I really appreciate you taking the time to do that for me. I am satisfied that we know everything we can at this point. And thank you for the leads on his wife! Have a happy Halloween.
