  1. Is the blue underlined letter an "N"? I've never seen one like this before.
  2. I am having trouble deciphering the words underlined in red. Any help?
  3. Does this document allude to the marriage of Nils and Ingebor in Sjörup?

Thanks for the help!

    1) The blue underlined letter is "N". If you look at entry 12 on the right hand page, the date is 25 Nov(ember), and the letter N is written the same way.


    2) These are the words you have underlined in red and their meanings:

    husmannens - "the farm laborer's"

    äckta föräldrar - "legitimate parents"

    i Siörup - "in Sjörup"

    bären(?) af hustru Sissa Per(sdotter?) Tufvas - "held (at the font) by wife Sissa Per(sdotter?) Tufvas" (in this context, "wife" means she is "a wife", not the wife of Mats Nilsson)

    boende - "living"


    3) Because the parents are "legitimate", you know that they are married but there is no mention of the marriage in this record.
