Thank you so much once again for your help!!!
Any chance you could help me with the godparents names? I can get only about 5% of this. I am trying to learn though!!! I was able to make out a little of this based on what you transcribed for me last time. I am learning!!! I am hoping to soon be able to do this on my own. |

Some of these letters are hard to understand, even the handwriting is very beatiful written in in Ghotic letteres. Proposals are welcome
BIG LETTERS-not sure
For Berit: Gabriel Skog, Oluf Olsen Dolstad, Anna JONSdatter Marken, Maren Remmen, Agata Andaas
for Ingelbert/Ingebrigt: Guttorm Engelbrigtsen Andaas, Hans Olsen ??vig-SØRNES, Ole Halsøen, Johanne Olsdr. ibit (same farm), Christianne Jacobsdatter Andaas.
An explanation of the names: -Dolstad, unic name, unknown origin, Dola/Darod could mean spear. -Marken means land, ground -Remmen means long height -Andaas- Duck ridge - ??vig means bay and Sørnes means the Southern spit of land. - Halsøen, øen means island and the farm is located to a small peninsula/toung of land outside the farm Hals in Vefsnfjord.
