A little help with translating please.
I am looking for the parents of a girl named Sara, born 10 April 1748 (that could be a christening date) in Bragdebo, Ostervala, Vastmanland. I found a Sara in the right place at the right time but I can't be sure its her because I can't read the parents names. And I'm not sure the place says Bragdebo. Could someone look at this snip-it for me? ArkivDigital: Ostervala (C,U) C:3 (1735-1779 image : 68 Page: 64

The record reads:
Left column: "Dop"-baptism/christening
Body: ditto (ie. same date as the entry above-17 April) Christened young Anders Anderson's and wife Kirstina Eriksdotter's in Gräsbo (a) little daughter Sara. Born the 10(th). Witnesses'/godparents' names and residences follow.
Bragdebo and Gräsbo are both villages in Östervåla parish in Västmanland County. I don't know if there is a connection between the villages, but the birth date and parish are correct.
I looked at the birth records for Östervåla for 1748 and didn't see another Sara born that entire year, so I think this is the one you are looking for.

Thank you so much. I looked at that record again and tried to find the family in Grasbo but they were not there. There was a family of that description in Bragdebo however so i concluded the recorder just made a mistake.
