David if you combine the original records with the Digitalarkvet short transcription of the same time frame your can come closer to being able to read the Gothic writing. For example above Jackie gives you some pointers on the right hand page and thus the first page for 1714.
Jackie gives you this information
quote: These entries are chronological. So the first entry on the right page is marked "Begrav" in the left margin, a burial on 13 Jan [1714] for a 76 year old whose name I'm not certain I can read. The line ends up with an eccliastical date/description.
The transcription tells you his name was Holger Stellefss.born 1638.

For the next record you need to play with the transcription to get the full record, use the plus symbol to pull up more info. Here the name is Halvor !! Hostvedt, Wasaas sogn. Seems as if the Norwegian Transcriber also struggles with the writing.
