Need help with Danish 1835 Census

Question

I have a copy of an 1835 Danish Census record and I found the family on the document but I need help making out some of the words.  The father is Andreas Laurebach [Laumbach?], age 33, the mother is Anna Cristina Koos, age 23, and the child is Andreas Detlef Laurebach [Laumbach?], age 3 (I think).  If there is anything legible enough to read, I would appreciate any information about the family that you can decipher, including the 4th name who I am guessing is related to the mother.  tyia!

Answer 1

Hi Marcie,

the fourth name is Christina Koos, age 15, unmarried. The note for her says 'Schwägerin des Hausvaters', so she was the sister-in-law of the father. I can't quite decipher the occupation of the father, but I think it ends in 'käthner' (cottager).

The record is in German, so I'd suggest adding the German tag so more German speaking people will see it and can help.

Thank you.  I changed the tags.  I can read a little bit of church record German so I should have caught on that I was understanding more than I should.
