Hey all. Back again with another strange one hopefully someone has seen and understands? I'm looking up Johannes Olsen who is supposed to have been born August 17th, 1828. I managed to find the page with his record but someone has inserted a piece of extra paper on top of it with some record information added to it.

However Johannes is my 3x great grandfather's brother. I have photos of them and they were definitely brothers. For a while I thought that John Olsen (b 1846) was really Johannes but on Johannes's death certificate they gave 1828 as his birth year.

Has anyone seen this before? Thanks!

In the days of microfilming the next image or the previous image was manipulated by moving the "extra" paper so that the information on those covered could be filmed.. I can't make the move to the next or previous page because of how you posted your image, so this is my guess on what's happening here.

The "extra" paper is the record of some person's baptism with parents names and faddernes' names. Either it contains the information which was forgotten on the original book or was in replacement of erroneous information in the book or the pastor forgot his working note in the book and then it was bound in and then filmed.

It concerns the Ole who is overwritten and replaced with Anne down the page.

Go back one "page" where the back of the insert covers the right page.
The record numbered 68 can there be seen fully. It says Johannes was born Aug 17 and bapt. Oct 28 1828. His parents were Ole Johannesen and Anne Iversdatter, cottagers under the Skaar farm.

I see where you are both saying. Interesting on my side I actually had to click "forward" but I think they just scanned it flipped before and after. And sadly that means this is not the Johannis I'm looking for. Thanks for the assist.
