What are these words in the Probate?
I am interested in knowing the words I have shaded with colors.
- Particularly: what is "fodrar" (yellow)?
- Is Capitall (green) a last name or a place name?
- What is the date in purple about?
- What is the title or occupation word that is pink?
I see that Anders Petterson (Capitall?) (in the line with the third pink highlighting) is a brother in law to the widower. Are there any other relationships here?
Thank you in advance!

@Ellen Zaifnejad
Capital(l) means cash
Fodra can mean several things, in this connection I'm leaning towards "to feed" meaning that they (fodrar) were someone who fed the animals
21 Feberiarus 1800, it looks like this person had some kind of an agreement with Jöns Nilson dated 21 February 1800
Kÿldig is probably a misspelling of Skyldig which means to owe someone. So this person owed money to several people.

I should have also asked: What is the title of this page? "Boets ______"

@Torhild Torhild I've been doing probates too, and keep coming across versions of a word I can't find on the FS wiki word lists. What is a Stervboet, or sterfboen, if you know?

Hello #[Ellen Zaifnejad] and #[Torhild Torhild] ,
The heading is Boets Grafvationer (although Grafvationer is written really bad). I found an example on the previous estate inventory. I looked up the word in Nordisk Familjebok under the word Grav and found out that Grav is a Latin-Greek word with 3 different meanings. In this case, it's from a Latin word Gravāre and has to do with claims against another persons estate which fits well in the context of the estate inventory. See http://runeberg.org/nfbj/0096.html. I will add it to the FS Wiki.
