Need help reading farm name in Tromsø birth record

[gj06709]

Could someone perhaps help me read the father's farm name (or prestegj.?) in entry # 9 (6 Nov 1823 birth record for Ludvig Trevesen)? Father's name is shown as Ludvig Trevesen fra R______ (?)

Troms fylke, Tromsø, Klokkerbok nr. 1 (1821-1833), Fødte og døpte 1824, side 120-121.

I think it is Ludvig Trevesen from Rostok.

The mother and the father are unmarried and the father, Ludvig Tervesen is an matros (seaman) from Rostock in Germany.

Here is an link about Rostok http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rostock

Harald-
That explains why I could not find the name in Norwegian farm name or parish searches.

Thanks for your quick response.
