The source description is correct: Church book from Fjelberg parish 1835-1851 (1213P)

The Baptism Place (Original) is incorrect: Fjelberg, Fjelberg, Hordaland, Norge. As with many of these Norwegian parish registers, the parish has multiple sub-parishes. Often in these original place name, the order is incorrect and only one of the sub-parishes was included. This original place name was likely Fjelberg parish (aka clerical district), Fjelberg/Eid/Vikebygd/Ølen sub-parishes (aka parish aka local parish). The Baptism Place (Original) therefore should have been: Fjelberg/Eid/Vikebygd/Ølen, Fjelberg, Hordaland, Norge or to simply things, just been Fjelberg, Hordaland, Norge to cover the entire parish (aka clerical district).

The Baptism Place is terribly incorrect: Fjelberg Kirkegård, Fjelberg, Hordaland, Norge. Fjelberg Kirkegård is the cemetery.
