She was a pensioner living in the house (her til huuse) under certain "terms" (vilkaar) which are unclear from this record. She may have been assigned to the house (family, families) by the community or parish for her support. Or it's possible her family owned the estate or farm and her heirs created a pension for her though this is not indicated by any fact in this record. Her documented family connections from earlier records may illuminate this further. Perhaps there are court records about her status.
