Is it possible to read the surname of Samuel Persson's father Pår?  Also the next few words?  Hopefully it shows his occupation and the farm/village?  Odensvi, Kalmar county C/2 1688-1722 Bild 49 Sida 82

As I read it:
Pär Swänssons mölnarens son vid Hafvet...

Pär Svänssons, the millers son (born) at Hafvet.

The place name today is Havetskvarn (kvarn=mill).

Wonderful!  Ulf, I thank you so much.  My cousin in Sweden thought it could be Swansson.
