looking for her death, I found a digital image of her husbands death in Nov 1812. Some ancestry files list Dorthe's death/burial date to be the same as her husband. I have not found any evidence of her death in the Keldby records at that time

Checking 1794-1814 Keldby Records for:
18 Dec 1804 - marriage of Anna Malene Rasmusdatter to Jens Pedersen kamp -- unsuccessful?

Dorthe ANDERSDATTER, widow of Rasmus NØR died in Keldby on the 15 of July 1828 in her 84th year. She was buried on July 19, 1828.
