I can never begin to thank you all enough for this breakthrough you have made for me! One last question: On https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0064845_00231#?c=&m=&s=&cv=230&xywh=42%2C64%2C7430%2C3967, way to the right for Nils, is this information:
I know skräddare means tailor, which was his vocation his entire life. I have also seen his last name written as 'Telin' in various places. What is the significance of this line, and how does the column header translate?

-
Column header is translated as Reputation and other notes.
This marking means that he is a tailor and taken a last name Telin. Craftsmen usually had a last name, they were "higher in rank" than farmers. (sorry, I can't remember what it is in better way in English, I hope you understand what I mean)
