The sponsor is the Catharina Elisabeth Wesemann born 1688, who married Andreas Halves in 1713 (F270): PROBABLE; the only Wesemann of the parish in these years. No Wesemann father 1702–1712 or 1722–1732 (F282). The stem "Wesema" is clear at the slider's fifth step above fit (O13.41c); the ending runs into the column rule. Grade: STATED; identity PROBABLE.
