Need help in identifying farm in Fjotland, Vest-Agder, Norway.

Fjotland parish, 15 Sep 1771, christening record for Ole, son of Torgrim Salvesen and Anna Olsdatter Fjotland. What is the residence of the 1st witness Søren Endresen? To me it looks like Bid____ or Lid____. Link: https://media.digitalarkivet.no/view/16908/20

    I haven't figured this out just yet, but I also see the same word in another record and written more clearly. Do you have more children of this couple that might show the same witness?Clipboard02

    Not sure, but it looks like Biæom.

    I had considered Bidrom after looking at other entries, (the "d" is super short).

    I think you are both on the right track. Looking again at this, I believe that it says Biærom, possibly Bjartheim today?

    Shari, I have identified four children for this couple and this witness appears in two others but without identifying his residence.
