The record
Image 128 (written pages 250–251, "1812") — priority hits only — MAJOR page
Entry 14 — Priority 7 hit, notable. Halle, 14 February, morgens 8 Uhr. Father: Müller (miller) Johann Friederich Brünig — a daughter born. Mother: Marie Louise Ahlbrecht, of Halle, alt 41 Jahr. Godparents: Christoph Weifel(?); Christoph Ahlbrecht, Halle; Leonore Ahlbrecht, Halle; Margrete Schlitka(?). Baptized 16 February. Child's name: Ernst Wilhelm.
— This is the first entry in this project's read explicitly styling a Brünig as "Müller" (miller) — direct Priority 7 evidence. Same full name (Johann Friederich Brünig) as the father in Image 126 Entry 7 (born 8 days earlier, "Vilsfeld"), which given the tight date gap is almost certainly a different man of the same name, or an error in one of the two villages — worth checking whether "Vilsfeld" and "Halle" could be the same parish location under two names, or whether these are two separate men.
