Thanks Olle! Yes, the words Hömossen Lägenhet appear before the name of the father in some of the Household Examination records.
I was told Hömossen was the location of the property and Lägenhet meant it was a small property.
But we couldn't figure out exactly what this word was. It looks like they may have tried to write in a small space and therefore they squeezed the letters together.
If anyone disagrees with this conclusion that this word means owner of a small property, please let me know.
