Hi, I need some help translating the baptism of Albert Otto in August 1849. There is a lot of information in this record that may clarify what is happening and why this baptism is happening a year late, I think. Appreciate the help.

    The third column reads (as near as I can make out) "26 August 1849 the home baptism of 21 October 1848 is (ie. was) confirmed in the church."

    The next to the last column (on the right-hand page) reads "Home-baptised by gaardeier (farmer/farm owner) Soren Gundersen Molteberg"

    The last column of the right-hand page is more difficult. There are a couple of words I can't make out, but I think it reads "because of this child's sickness, he was home baptized before he (the baptism) was confirmed in the church".
