Hi, I am hoping that someone can translate this burial record from Broager Sonderland Denmark 1876. his name was Rasmus Lorensen / Lorenzen born 1832 married to Marie Catherine Petersen.
Thanks,
Joanne

Hi
I do think this is actually German. I cannot see any Danish. Here is a link to the whole book: http://www.rootschat.com/links/01jmz/

Broager was actually in Schleswig-Holstein at that time: https://familysearch.org/wiki/en/Broacker,_Schleswig-Holstein,_Preussen,_Germany

According to the burial record which is very difficult to read and in German he was born 26 August 1832 to Peter Lorentzen and wife Anna Christina. He was married to Marie Christina Dorothea Petersen 6 Nov 1853.
I cannot make much else out.
A few records for you if you don't have them:
Rasmus birth record: https://ao.sa.dk/ao/data.ashx?bid=38093982 (in German)
Rasmus census 1845: http://ao.sa.dk/ao/data.ashx?bid=47726285 (bottom right) (in German)
Rasmus marriage record: https://ao.sa.dk/ao/data.ashx?bid=38092454 (in Danish)

Thank you Ian for your help. I wondered if it could be in German. Yes, what you have translated is correct. I was hoping that later it was numbering children. You have been very kind, and clever, to be able to make anything from that scrawl.

Cheers.
Are you looking for Rasmus' children?
Ian
My German is near non existent.

Well, after studying the text I worked quite a lot out.....
He had 7 children - they are numbered from 1 to 7 in the record:
1: Kristina or Kathrina
2: Kristian
3: Susanne....?
4: Hans
5: Maria
6: Magnus
7: Ingaborg
