Notes for Jens Peter Eskildsen
Middle name spelled "Peter" in LDS online records and 1845 census, but "Peder" in other documents.

Was living in Hornslet in 1885 when his son Niels was confirmed.

Somewhere I picked up Kjarende, Koed Sogn as his birthplace, yet there he is in Voldby, with his parents living in Sangstrup Bye (IGI corroborates this).

The 1880 census has him born in "Sangstrup Sogn", and another census (1890?) has "Volby Sogn". Neither of these is quite right, but both together make it clear where he's from.
