Which is the christening date?
3 Adv is 15 December 1811. Is this the christening date? There is also a christening date of 20 October 1811 in the body of the record. If one is home and one is at the church, which one do you use as his christening date. It doesn't seem like this could be a birth date and a christening date.
Also, what is the fathers occupation? farmer and?
Thank you for your help.

He is home baptised the 20th October and shown in church 3. advent (= 15. december).
There is no birthday given.
Sandbye (= Sandby) is not a farm, but a small "bebyggelse" (hamlet?) within Kundby Sogn, Tuse Herred, Holbæk Amt.
