The record

Image 108 (written pages 210–211, "1810") — priority hits only

Entry 31 (1810) — Priority 6 hit, MAJOR (illegitimate birth naming a Brand as putative father). Halle, 25 July, morgens 9 Uhr. Mother: Justine Wesel, alt 22 Jahr — an uneheliche Tochter (illegitimate daughter) born, "dessen Vater Ludewig Brand seyn soll" (whose father is said to be Ludewig Brand). Godparents not yet captured (entry continues past the visible portion of this image).

— A fourth distinct Brand given name now on record (after Conrad, Christian, and Heinrich Brand, plus Julius Brand and Ilse Marie Brand across Images 100, 101, 103, 108) — Ludewig Brand named as the putative father of an illegitimate child at Halle. The mother's surname, Wesel, also recurs from Image 107 (Wilhelmine Wesel). This is now a substantial cluster of Brand-surname entries at Halle worth mapping as a family group for Priority 6.
