The column heading on baptism records mentions civic position ( borgerlige Stilling. ) The mystery words may be the father's occupation, but are usually illegible and cannot be matched to Norway Occupations listed on the familysearch wiki. For example on the last line of https://media.digitalarkivet.no/view/1669/204?indexing= before Simon Erlandsen is a word that looks like Co/anasmud (hard to decipher) or on https://media.digitalarkivet.no/view/1669/19 the line for Christine Marie, before Simon Erlandsen a word that looks like Arbeidsmand. There are many other examples where help is needed to decipher and translate. After immigration to Chicago in 1854 Simon Erlandsen was a Ship's Carpenter.
