Hello! My first post to this forum although I have lurked for some time!
I am hoping for assistance in translating a baptismal entry for Johan Johannesen, found here: http://urn.digitalarkivet.no/URN:NBN:no-a1450-kb20070612610205.jpg
I can make out most of the detail, but I don't know what the "s. og Anders Davigsen" under Johannes' name might be in reference to. (son of??)
Thanks in advance!

Thank you. I have been spending a lot of time in the church records for several parishes in Finnmark. Johan Johannesen was my 2nd Great-grandfather. His son, Edward Sigvard, immigrated to the US in 1881 and settled in Wisconsin, where my grandfather, Theodore Gib Johnson, was born in 1900.
