Help reading Swedish birth record

Hi everyone, looking for a translation of birth record from Ossjo, Kristianstad, Sweden, 15 Oct 1727. Baby's name is Knut Nilsson (I think), looking for names of the parents. In particular this is the first time I see what looks like O"Bio", which appears multiple times in the record, but I don't know what that means. Any help would be appreciated! Record can be found at:

    The word is Össiö which is simply another spelling of Ossjo (Össjö). The letter that looks like a "B" is actually a double "s". The single vowel "i" just preceding it, means "in" and will always be followed by a place name.

     

    The father is Nills Knutz[son?]. The mother is not named.
