Otto Larsen Hoff Birth and Baptism Record

[Mitch Rognholt]

I found the birth and baptism record for my Great Grandfather at the following:

 

Fåberg prestekontor, SAH/PREST-086/H/Ha/Haa/L0007: Ministerial book no. 7, 1868-1878, p. 67 https://media.digitalarkivet.no/view/8937/73

 

 

 

Any help transcribing what it says would be greatly appreciated. Also, does anyone know where this church is located?

 

Thanks!

My attempt:
Otto was born on the 6th of January, and christened the 9th of February.
The parents are listed as:

Husmand Lars Kristiansen

og H. [short for 'Hustru'] Sönnov Pedersdatter

under Söndre Hof

 

that is, smallholder Lars Kristiansen and wife Sönnov Pedersdatter

[the smallhold is situated] under Söndre[South] Hoff

 

The  text below says something like (47 and 44 ...[?] 1852) 185...[?]

The sponsors are

Simon Svendsen, Pauline Asbjørnsdat-

ter Midtre Hoff. Lars Mikkelsen. Iver

Iversen and Marte Anundsdatter [A variety of Amundsdatter?] midtre [meaning 'middle'

Hoff.

 

 

The book of records is from Fåberg, which is probably this church: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fåberg_Church

There's a map on the page. It's in the Lillehammer area, a couple of hours drive north of Oslo.

"(47 og 44, - ægteviede 1852)"  [age 47 and 44, married 1852]

The year of marriage seems to be repeated/corrected after the parenthesis, by another hand.

The last digit is difficult to read, but it may be "2".

This church record covers Fåberg and Lillehammer. The "L" in front of the index number 22 indicates that the baptism took place in the church of Lillehammer, located in the town center of Lillehammer.

Back in 1873, this was a wooden church built in 1733 which was later torn down in 1882 and replaced by the current brick church

Here is a painting of the old wooden church

The church at Vingrom, next to Søre Hov(Søndre Hoff), was built in 1908.
