I need some help reading the surnames of this record. The parish does seem to have some names that a
Sunday Judica buried [?houseowner] and cavalryman Eric [?] mother in Olseröd, Bengta [?]who was 63 years old was born out in Småland, Sunnerbo härad, Ryssby parish and Skeda village, which died the 26th of the same month.

Looking at Bengta's surname and comparing it with other examples of the writing, I think she is Nilsdotter. Three lines above her name is the baptism of Jöns Nilsson's daughter Elma, and there are several similarities in the names. Additionally, there is a Nils Olsson on the line above Jöns Nilsson's name which also as that odd "N".
As far as Eric's surname, it looks like "Jüg _ _" or it could be "Jög _ _" if the writer didn't close the top of the "ö". The closest name I can find in the Nordic Names Wiki is "Jürgen" or "Jörgen". I can't make Iversson out of it at all.
Nordic Names Wiki is often quite useful in figuring out names: https://www.nordicnames.de/namefinder/
