Hi everyone, please find the attached picture. I'm guessing this is a birth record (mainly because off to the left I can tell they left the date of when someone died) but I'm not 100% sure about the names. It looks like there's a father and a son listed, not sure who else. If you want to read the record in context it is here:

    Hello #[lorene walker1]​ ,

     

    Looking at the open book, the pastor is mixing burials, marriages, and christenings on the same page. The entry that you are asking about reads:

    On 15th (June, 1739) just past 10 o'clock in the morning was the klockare (sextons) little son born here into the world. Ditto (June) 17th was christened the klockare's child here and named Petter. The pastors wife Greta Alström? of the prästgård held the child (at the time of the christening), and then it goes into the witnesses. There are no obvious relatives listed among the witnesses. And then someone added a note later, died 1804. The mothers name is not given.

     

    Hope this helps,

    Geoff
