In some baptismal records there is a number after the names of parents. https://media.digitalarkivet.no/view/1669/205 entries #234 #235 #244 #245 #246
What do the numbers after parents' names mean?

Was there any explanation for those numbers in the first page or pages of that section of the parish book?
It would appear to be some local use and meaning that was not standard for Norwegian church records.
