After selecting the desired book, it is a bit of trial
and error to locate the correct record type and date.
There is a color code next to the Opslag (poster) number

Finding the Parish
The good news is that all of the older parish records
are available online for free; however, you do need
to know the parish in order to find the desired records.
It also helps to know the exact date of an
event. Review U.S. vital records, military, immigration
and naturalization records for clues. I have
been able to locate the images of several records
after finding the dates and places from IGI entries
at FamilySearch.com.
The Danish Demographic Database, listed next,
can possibly locate individuals in census records that
often provide the birth parish and timeframe as well
as the necessary details to narrow down the search
for a census record image. One record can often provide
the necessary information such as birthplace,
age, or home to help locate other records.
Parish Registers—Images
Click on Søg i kirkebøger (Search in parish registers)
Select the desired Amt (County), Herred (Alle is
for All), and Sogn (Parish). A list of the available records
will then appear.
1858 Births in Trinitatis, Kobenhavn
Birth entries show the Entry number, the Date,
Child’s full name, Christening Date (in church or at
Home), Parent’s Names, Mother’s Age, and the names
of the Godparents. The Patronymic naming system
was in use until 1860. There was a transition period
as people began to use family surnames.
1858 Marriage Record for Lorenz Christian
Neuhaus and Regina Oelund
List of Records for Kongens Lyngby
The Keys for the codes that appear at the top of
each column are: F-Fodte (Birth), K-Konfirmered
Marriage entries contain the Bride and Groom’s
name, age, occupation, and residence along with the
two Bondsmen, and the marriage date. The last entry
is if the marriage was performed in the church
or at home, and if it was done at home, the date that
permission was given.
