Danish term or phrase: hertil angivet
I have a 1790 entry from the church registers of Voer Parish in Denmark. In this death record, the column for "Died" has "d. 19 November." However, in the column for "Buried," I only see the words "hertil angivet." Any idea what this means in this context? The only other thing I noticed about the entry is that is states the deceased man died "in Bitteby," although he usually lived in Vesterskov (both are in Voer Parish).
