I was having difficulty finding anything about my grandmother Anne Andersdatter. The only thing I knew was she married Mogens Nielsen 21 Aug. 1701 in the Gøttrup church (Gøttrup kirkebøger 1682-1724 opslag 135.) She was listed as being from Korsbech (also spelled Korsbæk). So I read the parish register hoping to find something more about her. I did find her as a witness to the baptism of Gertrud Mikkelsdatter (Gøttrup kirkebøger 1682-1724 opslag 51.) And that's the only place I found her other than her marriage record. What I'm going to share are examples of how Korsbech was written in the churchbook.
This is from Anne's marriage record (Gøttrup kirkebøger 1682-1724 opslag 135)
This is Anne Andersdatter Korsbech (Gøttrup kirkebøger 1682-1724 opslag 51)
What I did learn was there was another family living in Korsbech, Niels Jørgensen and Anne Pedersdatter. Anne was a witness at several baptisms.
Ender Ollufsen's baptism (Gøttrup kirkebøger 1682-1724 opslag 34). Note that Kors is spelled out.
Mads Jensen's baptism (Gøttrup kirkebøger 1682-1724 opslag 57).
Other examples of Korsbech are:
Maren Nielsdatter's baptism. She is the child of Niels Jørgensen and Anne Pedersdatter (Gøttrup kirkebøger 1682-1724 opslag 27) Note the use of the cross in place of Kors.
Birgitte Jensdatter's baptism. Anne Pedersdatter is a witness. (Gøttrup kirkebøger 1682-1724 opslag 31)
