Please help me read this Swedish birth record
Please help me read this Ånimskog C:2 birth record for the child of Jan or Par Dunder and his wife Anna (a later Ånimskog AI:2 record seems to indicate that her last name is Hansdotter or Jansdotter).
The birth record appears to me to be for a village in Ånimskog called Wassnöa (Vassnöden, the modern version of the village name). The child is born on 11 July 1738 and christened on 13 July 1738. This record seems to show the child's name as Dordi, a name I have never seen before. The record is number 14 on image 8 and can be found at:
Thank you. Kirk Stromberg

Hello KirkStromberg ,
This is what I read:
Entry 14, Wassnöa, the soldier Per Dunders and wife Anna's child, born on 11 and christened on 13 July. Male godparents (were) the laborer Sven Hansson of Nääs. Female godparents, the wife Marit Andersdotter of Buane (modern spelling Bodane) and the maiden Malin Andersdotter of Wästegården (modern spelling Västergården), called Dordi.

Your translation helps me very much! I was troubled by the first name of the father and, of course, the child's first name and now I know for sure. Thank you!
