Is this the death record of a daughter or a son?
I just found this record of a death (stillbirth) in 1761. It is the child of Jens Sorensen and Kirsten Andersdatter.
I can't tell whether the child was a daughter or a son. Is that extra little squiggle at the end of dodfodt, the clue?
Thanks in advance,
Kari Marshall

Unfortunately, this record doesn't say, is there a child born in the last year or so that might be it? the column in the middle of Andersdatters is a column for age, and the squiggle in it is a ditto mark or a dash which makes me think the child was less than a year old.

Thank you Savannah Larson-
But doesn't it say that the child was stillborn? There does not seem to be a child born within the previous year. I was hoping that the extra squiggle was something that indicated boy or girl...
I guess it may remain a mystery.
Thanks again,
Kari Marshall
