Magnild Pedersen birth

[peter sven]

Magnild Pedersen was born on either 23 or 28 October, 1795 in Risør, Aust-Agder. I have found 3 birth records all of which do not agree with each other which presents a bit of a problem.

1/ Risør 1747-1812 page 267. She is born on 23.10.1795 and the father is noted as Jens Pedersen with no mother mentioned.

2/ Risør 1746-1815 page 19. She is born on 23 or 28.10.1795 and the father is Ole Perssen (Risisøer)and the mother is Marte Annesdatter.

3/ Risør/Søndeled 1746-1816 page 81. She is born on 23 or 28.10.1795 and the father is Ole Perssen.

 

I have her confirmation, marriage and death records, but none of them give any indications of her parents. Could someone take a look at these records and tell me when she was born and who her parents are.

I guess these records could be of "your" Magnhild:

 

Magnild, daughter of Ole Pers. Riisøer Karen Jensd., bapt. Oct. 23, 1795:

Census of 1801:

Karen Jensdatter, a widow, age 36, and her daughter Magnhild Olsdtr, age 5:

(I guess there can be a miswriting in the record stating that Magnhilds father was Jens Pedersen in the duplicate register. The date of baptism are the same, and there seems to be only one Magnhild on that day.)

Thank you Yngve. For the last couple of days I have pondered how solve this problem and have not come up with any clear solution. I am leaning towards aceppting her birth date, but noting that there is some question as who her parents were.
