Is there any significance to the hash (#) symbol on the following illegitimate birth record for Johan Severin Larsen?

http://www.arkivverket.no/URN:kb_read?idx_kildeid=2522&idx_id=2522&uid=ny&idx_side=-17

...See entry 59

I’m trying to find clues for more information on the father - Lars Jensen.

I believe the "the hash (#) symbol" you refer to is at one of the words before Lars Jensen - if so it is part of the letter T - the two words are "Tjenestedreng Ungkarl" = male servant bachelor.

Lars Jensen being a common name and since he was a servant at Fjeldvig in 1858 you have to be extremely lucky if you will find the one who was Johan Severins father.
