Hi Ruth,
So glad to hear from you. I'm new to genealogy & am going to Denmark 4/9/24-4/24/24. I havent been able to find any living descendants to contact but I've gotten info on where some of my ancestors were born & today I've been trying to map out places to visit where to where they are from. My husband is wanting to get reservations done this eve. They seem tp live in the same regions to each other so that helps. We'll only have 4 nights to stay in the areas where they were.
I've spent a lot of time trying to figure out one thing, maybe you could help? Three of them: Hans Peter Jenson Sept. 27, 1823-1904; his wife Anna Margrethe Pederson July 1, 1825-May,1848; and their daughter Anna R Hansen Jensen 8/12/1848 were all born in "Horbelev, Falster, Maribo". I cannot figure out which town they were actually born in and the parish church for that town. I'd greatly appreciate any answers to this question.

The parish is Horbelev. The "herred = hundred" is Falsters Sønder. See here for a definition of "Herred": https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Danish_Herred.
There is a Hans Jensen Bregninge (a farm name) born on 27 Sept 1823 in the above parish. That record is here (entry #10): https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?bsid=354148#354148,70335733.
He is here in the 1834 Census (the 11 year old male): https://www.danishfamilysearch.com/cid3280775.
There is a Margrethe Pedersdatter Særsløv (a farm name) born 1 July 1825 in the same parish. That record is here (entry #9): https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?bsid=354149#354149,70335779.
This may be her in the 1834 Census. She is listed as a 9 year old "tjenestefolk = servant". I am not sure where her parents are at this time.
Anna Hansen's birth record is in the same parish. The family is still on Bregninge farm. That record is here (entry #8): https://www.sa.dk/ao-soegesider/da/billedviser?bsid=354158#354158,70336022.

Than you @Norm Baker
I have copied your answer in a separate message to @Debra2045 in case she did not check the group directly.
Thank you very much. This should help with her Denmark Travel plans enormously.
