On the following parish record at the digitalarkivet, i can't figure out the street name for entry 26, Thomas William Ross. I've got the rest but do not understand that street name. I'm sure the last two are gd for gade but don't get his handwriting on that one.

You might also add the transcription tag.

And for those of us who think we might be able to read the handwriting, though not speaking the language, which column is the address?  smiley

As one who does not know the language, it looks like SAKKE GD to me. I looked it up and SAKKE means bags. So its a real word. SAKHE means we have built.
Neither Sakke nor Sakhe are Norwegian words. Sekk(er) means Sack(s) or Bag(s). I don't understand your: "Sakhe means we have built" - This is certainly FAR from Norwegian. The combination "kh" does not exist in our language. "We have built" = "Vi har bygget"
It's column 7. First column on the right page. Well i "think" i can read that handwriting, but i was positive it wasn't an L as it didn't match some of his L's in names. But not only does it look like an L but it also puts them right near the church they were married in.

Thanks so much. I was sure it wasn't an L but with that name it puts them right next to the church they were married in. And thank you so much for including the map. Very nice.
What a nice map!!!
