Request Letter Identities (Norwegian)
There are several words that I can't quite make out for my transcription (my first! 😄 ).
page 291, 2nd entry for July 12th, Bendix Hansøn and Anna Siursdatter:
1. 1st and 3rd word of entry, right below "Pigen Maritha": "Sam_ Dag _l__"
2. 2nd and 3rd word (or maybe it is all one word?) of second line, just before "Pigen Anna": "_gtr_irt __d" ??
Thank you so much!

meh. I can't edit my previous post. I'm thinking the line above the "m" represents a double letter (?) in the first word making it "Samme", and the "_gtr_irt __d" is "ægteriet med" (and Google translate tells me that + Pigen = 'married the girl')
Is anyone able to confirm that much?
Still no clue on the 3rd word of the entry. Leaning towards "blen," but it curves in a way that is not 'n-ish' and I've no idea if that is even a word.

I've been out of town for a week without computer access which was wonderful or I would have looked at this sooner. Here is a transcript of the record:
Same Dag blev ungkarl og Soldat Bendix Hanson Nordvigen ægteviet med Pigan Anna Siursdatter Teigen
Same day was bachelor and soldier Bendix Hanson Nordvigen married with maiden Anna Siursdatter Teigen

Thank you so much, Gordon! I value that you've provided the entire transcript and also the translation as this is such a good learning opportunity for me!!
