Help interpreting Swedish death record

1875-04-25 Sweden Death Record, Vol 518, Roll SC-669 - Thomas Burt_My English 3rd great-grandfather Thomas Burt, https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/LFZD-ZXM, https://www.ancestry.co.uk/family-tree/person/tree/104476023/person/170103360308, died 25 Apr 1875 whilst in Sweden. I've recently found this death record for him on Ancestry that I would like some help to fully understand: "Sweden, Church Records, 1451-1943. County: Kalmar; Parish: Oskarshamn; Volume: 518; Record Type: Död; Year Range: 1875; Roll/Fiche: SC-669". Are there likely to be any other records in Sweden related to his death? How do I find precisely where he was buried? How do I find if there is/was a gravestone?

    Thomas Burt is buried in Döderhults kyrkogård (Oskarshamn, Kalmar län)

    Here is the link to his gravestone info, it contains the photo of the gravestone and exact location of it:

    And the original death info, that you found from Ancestry is just an extract.

    Oskarshamns kyrkoarkiv, Död- och begravningsböcker, SE/VALA/00293/F/2 (1861-1877), bildid: A0008291_00084, sida 159
