Notes

The prior research's image catalog gives the birth as 25 January 1820 (equal tier; the catalog's date stays, this reading is the alternative; no re-read). The godmother is the miller's daughter Caroline Louise (F275; PROVEN). The cross is not the child's: she lived to 1858. Grade: STATED. Grade: STATED.
