What is the additional info in the Parents' column of this birth record

KariM

According to the birth record for Dorthe Catrine Pedersdatter, she was born 13 Sep 1833 to Ane Catrine Pedersdatter and Soren Pedersen (?). The record indicates Dorthe was enkebarn--I'm thinking that means her father had died? Also, what is the relationship of Peder Christensen who is also mentioned in the record?

Record can be found at: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3QSQ-G94W-DDM5?, bottom entry on the page.

Thanks in advance,

The column with the information for the parents is saying that the mother, Ane Catrine Pedersdatter, is the widow of Søren Pedersen. It is reporting that the mother claims that the child's father is Skrædder (Tailor) Peder Christensen Møller who lives in Schibsby. See the Danish/English wordlist in the FamilySearch Wiki: https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Danish_to_English_Genealogical_Word_List#S

The 1834 census for the mother and child is here: https://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid3138530.

The father, Peder Christensen Møller, is here in the same census: https://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid3138478

Norm is correct. The word you're reading in the column as "enkebarn" is actually "enkekone" (widow)--compare the second "k" with the first.

Thank you both so much!
