Can someone translate the image below? The writing (other than the names) seems like abbreviations.

Can someone translate the image below? The writing (other than the names) seems like abbreviations. This is a Norwegian Lutheran Church record in Minnesota. I tried Google Translate - no luck. Thank you!

@Susan0624 Susan0624​ It's always helpful for us to have a link to the image so we can see the entire document. Forældres Navne = parents names. Ungk. = ungkarl, a bachelor Ole W. Bjorkman. Pige = maiden Anna Carlson.

@Susan0624 Susan0624​ It is probable the parents seen for Anna Carlson KJG1-VBZ in FamilySearch are incorrect. A quick search shows this good possibility, but it is not documented so it's accuracy is not yet known.

Anna VALSVIK (born Carlson), Circa 1879 - 1952

Anna VALSVIK (born Carlson) was born circa 1879, in Norway, to Andrew E. CARLSON and Hilge "Hellen" Hilgesdatter CARLSON (born Gvaale).

Andrew was born circa 1846, in Sweden.

Hilge was born circa 1847, in Norway.

Anna had 6 siblings: Hannah JOHNSON (born Carlson), Nels Alfred CARLSON, Matilda BAKER (born Carlson), Helena Karina CARLSON, Louisa DORSETH (born Carlson) and Betsey Andrina BENSON (born Carlson).

Anna passed away on June 20 1952, at age 73 in Duluth, Minnesota.

She was buried in Oakley Cemetery, Littlefork, Koochiching, Minnesota, United States.

Thanks, Shari. I have the actual parents of Anna and all her other information. What I need is a translation of the portion of the record I pasted. It is the baptism of Anna's daughter, Sophia. Anna had Sophia before she married Lars Valsvik and I'm trying to find if she was married earlier to Ole W. Bjorkman, or if he just fathered Sophia. I'm hoping the Norwegian writings/abbreviations on this baptism record will tell me that. However, I appreciate your time and response!!

S. Billock

Thank you! That answered my question of whether Ole and Anna were married. If he's a bachelor and she is a maiden, then no marriage took place. Exactly what I needed. Thanks much. 😀

Shari Duce

That's great. Sorry if I caused any confusion. I didn't see a christening for Anna in FamilySearch tree so I was thinking you wanted to find her parents.

S. Billock

No confusion - no worries. I just needed to know if Anna was married to Sophia's father and you helped answer that question, so thank you again. BTW, I see we share a relative and are cousins of a sort. Nice to meet you, and thanks again for your assistance. I greatly appreciate you and the time you took.
