Does Sisela have any nicknames? (and handwriting help)
I think this record says "same day christening Olaf Anderson's daughter Sissa in Ossjo." I have an ancestor named Sissela Olafsdotter whom I have been assuming was born around this time and place. Any chance Sissa is short for Sissela? P. S. on the left-hand margins of the page there's occasionally something written but I have no idea what it means. If anybody wants to see the whole thing, this record was taken from arkivdigital.net, Kristianstad, Ossjo, 31 March 1705.

Yes, it says, same day (31 March) baptized Olus Andersson's daughter Sissa in Össjö who was born 26 (March)
Sissa is same as Sissela.
Left margin it says flicke barn which means girl child. other note is gåsse barn=boy child, this makes it easier to find baptizing/christening records from marriage and death records.
