Bryngel Tolfsson Tveten, Rölanda, Sweden again
This is Bryngel Tolfsson again. Don't know if he had a wife, still trying to find him. This record is either a death or church notes. Can you translate the record. He may be related to Joen Tolfsson in Ramberg.

This is from a church council meeting of 1727 where he probably takes on the position [which I sadly can't figure out what precisely it is called "Kyrki.....taren"] that he later has at the church meeting of 1730.

Could it be something like "KYRKVÄKTAREN" (with some kind of old spelling).
He was the church officer, who was the overseer of the inventory and good condition of the church. He helped the bell ringer with taking care of the cemetery and to wake people that slept during church service.
