Hi

According to your tree on FamilySearch he was born on 18 July 1870 in Nysund - Oskar Fredrik Johansson. There is no Fredrik Oscar Andersson born that year in 1870:

This is the same Oskar leaving Nysund 23 March 1893:

The same Oskar left Gothenburg 7 April 1893:

The same Oskar arrived New York on 25 April 1893 on the Chester:

He changed his name to Andersson later on. In Sweden the surnames followed the patronymic system back then.

I am assuming that this is the right man of course. It does look to be so.

There were 2 books used. I don't know why. The handstyles are not the same either.

There was another birth/baptism record for Elen #39 saved to her profile elsewhere. Where is that full image?

I just noticed on the 1920 Census record for Elen Petrine Olsen, it appears to say that she had 12 children and only 11 are still alive. Am I translating correctly?
Yes you are.

On the birth record for Helmer Marius, what is the word after Ole Olsen (father's name)?
****
Thanks for your continued work on this.

You're welcome Richard.

The word is "Kjerringvatne" I believe.
