Help with a Swedish Marriage record
Hello! I'm tackling my first Swedish marriage record, looking for Jons Parsson and Hanna Larsdotter married on the 18 November 1848. I think I found the image on the record, but I can't understand anything but the date. I can't see either name. I was hoping to find any other information about either person, but I'm not sure if Swedish marriage records show their residences or ages. So, my questions are: 1. Do I have the right image? 2. Is there any other information I can get from it? Thanks so much!

You do have the correct image.
Transcription: "d.18 Nov. Wigdes dr[ängen] ifrån _______ ____ _________ i Wids=skiöf. Jöns Pärs[son]. och pigan Hanna LarsDot[ter]. i Widskiöf[le]".
Translation: "the 18th of November was married the bachelor (or farmhand) in from _______ ___ _____________ in Widskiöfle(Vittskövle) Jöns Pärsson and the maid Hanna Larsdotter in Widskiöfle(Vittskövle)".
I spent a long time yesterday trying to figure out the farm where Jöns came from. The record says it is in Vittskövle parish, but I can't find anything that looks right. The name sort of looks like "__ypa __d Tårpar__" but I don't see anything that looks like that in any of the websites I use to find small places in Sweden.
It is apparent that they were both living in Vittskövle parish when they married.
