Place of birth

[edit]

I think there has been a mix-up of places: Oldenburg is not part of Eiderstedt, but a city and county in Lower Saxony. Oldenswort is a place in Eiderstedt.

The Danish article notes Oldenswort as place of birth does, as does [1]. On the other hand, [2] gives the county of Oldenburg. Maybe there is someone with more information on this person who can clarify this. Jadephx (talk) 08:34, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

PS: I just had a closer look at the pictures of the gravestone available on findagrave.com, and the inscription also states "Oldenswort". Jadephx (talk) 23:33, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A baptism record from Oldenswort indicates that the place was indeed not Oldenburg, but Oldenswort (limited access on [3]). Jadephx (talk) 10:14, 28 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
