For this search, I ended up on page 176.
This record is telling me the following:
He was the 53rd child born in the parish of Dädesjö for the year of 1835.
His full given name was Carl Peter Jonasson. His last name states that his father's name was Jonas.
He was born on the farm/or area of Norratorp (northern farm) "under" Dadesjo.
His father's full name was Jonas Peterson Plato. Plato was a soldier name acquired by Jonas Peterson at the time of his enlistment. He either was assigned the name or took the name as his own choice.
His mother was Katarina Carlsdotter. She was 30 years of age when he was born. You can surmise that Katerina's birth year was 1804 - 1806.
Following the listing of the parent's names are the witnesses to the baptism/christening. they included:
Farmer (torp) Nils Svenson from Norratorp
The unmarried working man (Drangen) Hakan Mansson in Dadesjo.
The unmarried working woman (pigan) Stina Samuelsdotter.
Now that you have found the place that the infant was born and his/her parent's, search for the family in the census.
