Yes. It's a list of names of people arriving on ship immigrating to Bergen.
Fars stilling : Father's occupation
Tent hos : worked at (reference to last employer)
Früjahr is German, and means the season of "spring". It can be the name of the ship.
Skipper is a reference to the position of captain on a boat.

Best regards,

I had the wrong person so changed the information.
There are comments in the Merknad field and was wondering what that means:
Faren død i 1692, var oldermann for Bergen-farerkompaniet, Bremen. broren Joh. Meyer

Father dead in 1692, was "oldermann" for "Bergen-farer" company, Bremen (in Germany), brother Joh. Meyer.

Oldermann can possibly be loosly translated with "guild leader", or "the head of"
Bergen-farer can be german. Farer, means "far", or possibly "fahrer" which means driver/traveller. So it's can mean that he was head of a Bremen-based company that had business in Bergen.
