Following is the link for the death record of Petrus Dominicus Vanschoebeke: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:S7WF-99HM-39?i=410&wc=QZ9J-G6G%3A1009591601%2C1067760001&cc=2139860. I need help finding his age and birthplace. Thanks!

The document says that he is drieinzestig jaren and geborten and woonende alhier.

That means he is 63 years old and was born and is still residing in the same place, which would be the place where you found the record.

 

Does that help?

 

You could also go to the Family Search Research Wiki for Belgium or the Netherlands for help with reading numbers and reading death records.

Yes - the record states that he was born "alhier," meaning here in Sint-Baafs-Vijve." you will need to search the parish registers for this town. They do appear to be online at FamilySearch. There is an index at https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/158158
