Berthe Kittlesdatter Lauvrak born in 1800, parents Kittle Tellefsen and Maren Tellefsdatter.

Berthe

I would read the date as 17th Trinitas which would work out to October 5, 1800.

Is it possible for someone to confirm that my reading of the date is correct.

You are right Anton, Oct. 5.

I find it strange that it would be October 5th.
The chr.records above Berthe are from Oct 12 (18th S. a. Trin.) and Oct 26 (20th S. a. Trin.)
The next date after Berthe is Nov 9 (22nd S. a. Trin.)

Should the chr record be from 02 Nov 1800? (21st S. a. Trin.)?

Is it also not odd that the reference to 17th Tritnitas is the only time that this type of dating is used in the whole year. All of the other dating is by month and day. By date the baptism would be between October 26 and November 2.
