Can someone enlighten me on the word in front of Christi Engebretsdatter's name #22 in 1849?

Nes kirkebøker, SAKO/A-236/F/Fa/L0009: Parish register (official) no. 9, 1834-1863, p. 544

Hard to discern all the letters, but "AMF" has transcribed it to "Selveierkone", which seems plausible:

(A "selveier" being someone who owns his own farm and "kone" meaning wife.)

Many thanks. I thought that that might be possible but good to know for certain.
