I was referring to the term "bruger" rather than "plads". And in Danish at least, "place of birth" would be "fødested".
Per Bergvall Jun 25, 2015:
Place Place of birth is odd in the context - of a birth record?
Pernille Chapman Jun 25, 2015:
This seems very odd in the context - it literally means (user) place (or space).
eodd Jun 22, 2015:
This is Danish and plads means place.

Plads is the Danish spelling, used there until this date. The Word is the same as the German Platz. The Norwegian spelling of plass emerged in the early 1900's.
