1880 Census - Peder and Christine Jensen

From the 1870 Census I found two children for Peder and Christine Jensen. I've also gone back and found christening records for those children and for Peder. Since both children were christened in the Lutheran church I guess the Jensen's didn't get baptized into the LDS church like Christine's family did...at least not yet. :)


Moving forward in time, I decided to look for the Jensen's in the 1880 Danish census. I have family accounts, from the Funch/Lund's in the USA, that the Jensen's did immigrate at some future time. It would have to be after 1880 since they are in the census --

This time they have another son, Jacob Peter Jensen, age 1. There is a 10 year gap between Laurits and Jacob. Did they have more children who did not live to 1880? Miscarriages wouldn't be recorded but stillbirth's would probably get a burial record (but I would imagine not a birth record). If they did have children that lived for a short while, then I should be able to find a birth record. I'll have to go through all the church records for those years and see what I can find.


For now, here's the original image of the census:
