Baptism record of Helge Kristoffersson
The baptism record of Helge Kristoffersson is entered on the left side of the page under the "Holmen" column, year 1781, and it is the second entry from the bottom of the page.
It states:
Eodem Die" (meaning the same day as the entry before it) baptized was Kristoffer Kjetilsson Bjørndalen`s male child "Helge". It then lists the names of his Godparents (sponsors), and at the end is mentioned, "introducerte" the 26 December 1781.
Looking at the previous baptismal entry it states: " Dom. 23 P. Trinit. (Dominica 23 Post Trinitatis)" - meaning "the 23rd Sunday after Trinity Sunday = November 18 (and the Pastor has written November 18 here).
Therefore Helge Kristoffersson was born on the Bjørndalen farm, in Sigdal parish, Buskerud county and was baptized on November 18, 1781 in the Holmen church, Sigdal parish. His mother (Kari Aslesdotter) was introduced back into the Holmen congregation on December 26, 1781.
