Jamtland parish record interpretation...help please!

Can someone help interpret this household examination record for me?

My grt grt grandmother, Lovisa (Lisa) Olausdotter, was living in the Dufed local parish of Are, in Jamtlands, Norway, in 1866. The record is linked below. In it, it lists that she moved to "Sunni" on 20 Nov 1866.

Am I reading "Sunni" right? What is Sunni? Is it another local parish in Are, Jamtlands? I looked and noticed there is another parish in Jamtlands called "Sunne"...could it be that she moved there?

Lovise Olausdotter is a brick wall of mine. She died in Tacoma, Washington, USA. Before that she lived in Minnesota. Before that, she immigrated from Nord-Tronledag, Norway. There, she stated she lived in Are, Jamtlands, Sweden. I have only had moderate success locating her in Sweden. By age 13-14 she was living on her own, moving between local parishes in Are...so I am currently trying to definatively trace her movements in Sweden before she arrived in Norway. Her parents must have died or something...I dont know.

Anyway, thank you for the help!!!
