I am trying to find information about John William Nissler who seems to be an English man living in Denmark. Would someone please read these two birth records for his children and translate them for me, particularly the remarks written on Vita's record.

Birth record for Vita Eddy Antonette Pedersen

Birth record for Frederik William Nissler This child became known as Frederik William Hansen.

He have been busy... both mothers were unmarried and that is the reason for the remarks. According to the law at the time it was the place of "creation" that should support the child if the mother was not able to.

For Vita: 10 months before giving birth the mother lived in Absalonsgade 44, 2nd floor. The birth is noted in Frederiksberg sogn (birth) and Sankt Matthæus sogn (child support responsable)

For Frederik Willian: 10 months before giving birth the mother lived Amagertorv 6. The birth is noted in Frederiksberg sogn (birth) and Helligånds sogn (child support responsable)

And it is street names, not towns

Police registration of John William Nissler born 7 May 1847 in Lincoln England who 1 May 1892 moved to Købmagergade 26 2nd floor

Politiets registerblade

There is also a Frank Ward Nissler born 18 Jun 1875 in Lincoln living in København - seem to be nephew of John William

Thank you Hanne! This is really useful. This “busy” man, I have just learned, is my 2nd gr-grandfather. I have now also found another child born to him and a different unwed mother. This is changing my tree quite a bit from what we thought our background was.

Death record of Johan William Nissler

13 Apr 1897 Sankt Petri Tyske kirke, Sokkelund, København, Danmark side 48 nr. 7

He died unmarried - in Købmagergade 26

About the street:

Købmagergade

I didn't know about the Copenhagen City Archives website. What a wealth of information! Thank you for pointing me in this direction.
Hanne, are you able to read the godparents names and addresses on the record for Frederik William Nissler?

I think it says:

Madsen

? - ? 6

N Tronier Brief - Leitung 55

Fru Patison - Danmarksgade 5
Moderen

Postholder O. Larsen - Løvstræde 6

N Tronier Bud - Istedgade 55

Fru Petersen - Danmarksgade 5

Moderen=the mother, Postholder=mailman, Bud=deliveryman, Fru=Mrs then name and streetname and number

A few items:

On Ancestry.com there's Johan William Nissler died Apr 13, 1897, Copenhagen

Thank you, What I am having difficulty with is the paragraph written under remarks for Vita's birth  and the notes under John William Nissler's name for Frederik's birth.
yes i agree, couldn't make out much of it; several abbreviations etc
