It reads that he has move to Storfors (in Värmland county) in 1805. Before 1960, Storfors was called Kroppa. See if he has moved in there.
This page in the Family Search Wiki has a list of all Swedish parishes: https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Sweden_Parish_Listing

I forgot about the note in the last column. It appears to be "utan klander" but you have to look on page 103 to see it more clearly written. "Utan klander" translates to "without blame".

Norm, thank you for this info but it makes another question. If Kroppa wasn't called Storfors until 1960 why would it be used in the 1800s? And just for curiosity, what would" without blame" be referring to? Deniese

Good catch about Kroppa/Storfors. The parish list actually just says "before 1960 see Kroppa", so I guess it may have gone by both names, but the records are listed under Kroppa? Kroppa has a few places with Storfors in their names. See here for a list of places in Kroppa: https://www.familysearch.org/en/wiki/Kroppa_Parish,_V%C3%A4rmland,_Sweden_Genealogy
I think the "utan klander" has to do with his character. "Klanderlös" which would be about the same as "utan klander" translates as "impeccable". Apparently, he was a pretty good guy!!

Norm, I did find the person I was looking for in Kroppa parish, Storfors village. And the utan klander info was very interesting. Always nice to find fun pieces of information in our families. Thank you. Your help is much appreciated. Deniese
