The record
Landeskirchliches Archiv der Evang.-luth. Landeskirche Hannovers, Kirchenkreis Bodenwerder, Linse, Kirchenbuch 1815-1853, Bild 24 (archion.de). Archion register 390716.
Only entries involving the Wesemann/Wasmann surname are included below. Uncertain readings are marked (?). Read directly from the archival scan for this file; the project's prior pass on this image recorded the godparent name only, in summary, without a German transcription. The page heading reads "im Jahre 1836"; this is the last entry of that year, with the baptism falling in January 1837.

Notes
> The father's column is blank. This is an illegitimate birth, entered on the standing formula with the mother's parentage given in full and no putative father named. > > The godparent surname is not settled. The fourth letter carries a closed, rounded descender that reads as g at least as readily as as a long s, which would give Wiegemann — not a Wesemann variant at all. The project's earlier pass recorded it as Wiesemann and treated it as a Priority 1 hit. Until the letter is resolved this entry should not be counted as a Wesemann sighting. > > If it is Wiesemann, Theodor is a Wesemann-family individual not on this project's list for any of the documented Linse millers, and would need to be placed. Grading: unproven, on a contested letterform. > > Godparent 2, Wilhelmine Halbrodt, Müllers Tochter, is a Halbrodt of the second Linse milling family — the same pairing of the two milling households seen at Bild 12 in 1823. > > The mother is a daughter of the Schneider Ludewig Meyer, the same man entered as father at Bild 12, entry 3 of this register in 1823. Her stated age puts her birth at about 1812. > > The remarks column beside this entry carries a marginal note referencing a date in July 1836. It was not resolved and is not transcribed.
