I have the birth and christening record of my ancestor, Syverin Johansen ( G74S-GTY) in 1849 in Stange Parish, Hedmark, Norway. On the attached record, item 135, I'm trying to read the farm name, which appears to be "Hestnes." I would like to verify that farm name and to further identify the next word that appears to start with an "S."
