Need help with the church date listed in the transcribed record for the baptism. As you know, I never understand them. I get that "Epiph" is Epiphany, but there are certainly no epiphanies for me with ecclesiastical dates!!! The date of birth I have from the transcription, but I don't know what the date of baptism is. Mange Tusen Takk in advance for the baptism date in a recognizable format. :-) Stephen/Stephan Nielsen, son of Niels Olsen & Berit Stephensdatter. The modern spelling of the farm name is Skjelstad and the name shows up often in my family's records; I found the location of the farm on the map a long time ago. In adulthood, Stephen married and moved to Forsell (same sogn, prestegjeld).
