I believe this is the birth record of my ancestor, Elisabeth Månsdotter. I need some assistance with reading the names of the parents, particularly Måns surname and also his wife's first name (I believe his wife's surname is Svensdotter?) Thank you very much!

    The father is Måns Gummasson (or Gummesson) and the mother is Ingri Pärsdotter. The farm is Beng(ts)g(ård)-Östra Jäts. This is the family in the Household Exam records (they are listed 3 times covering 1718-1731): https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0024750_00074#?c=&m=&s=&cv=73&xywh=-886%2C-138%2C7119%2C4486. Oddly, Elizabeth is not listed here. I found Elin's birth (to rule out the possibility that Elin was a pet name for Elizabeth). She was born on 30 August 1726. That birth record is here: https://sok.riksarkivet.se/bildvisning/C0024767_00109#?c=&m=&s=&cv=108&xywh=514%2C-211%2C3562%2C2312.

    There is a note that "the father, Gumme Pärsson" died in 1731. I am pretty sure that he is the father of Måns.
