English translation: 18 and 19. Johann Ernst Friedrich Seebaum, miller's journeyman and [cooper?] at the local mill, and his wife Caroline Louise née Wesemann, twin sons. a) born on the 19th of April in the afternoon at 11 o'clock, baptized on the 9th of May, named: Heinrich August Ludewig. Godparents: 1) the maiden Marie [Baumeister], née Leißner[?], daughter of the mill-master Friedemann Baumeister of Linse. 2) the local carpenter and court official Heinrich Christian Ludewig Lemmerling. 3) Mrs. [?], née Innbußen[?], wife of [?] Georg [?] of [Lauenbrück?]. b) born on the 19th of April at noon, baptized on the 9th of May, named: Ernst Friedrich Wilhelm. Godparents: 1) the master miller Johann Ernst [Wagner?] of [Herzebrock?]. 2) the local [textile maker?] and merchant Heinrich Christian Wilhelm Hofmeister[?]. 3) Mrs. [Charlotte?] [surname unclear], née [Brautigam?], wife of the local citizen and surgeon (Wundarzt) Johann Heinrich [surname unclear].

Note: confirms the draft's part (a) closely. Part (b)'s godparents, which the draft could not read ("partially illegible, cut off at bottom of crop"), are now visible on Find_5b and filled in above as a best-effort reading. The household detail — Seebaum as Müllerknecht (miller's journeyman), not just a generic resident — matches Hit \#4's description of him as "der hiesige Müller" two entries earlier. See the cross-reference note below on why this second twin matters beyond the transcription itself.

Paragraphs already present above, word for word or nearly so, have been left out. Everything below differs from the text above in at least one reading, date, name or note, and is kept so that no reading is lost.

Only the entry involving the Wesemann/Wasmann surname is included below. Uncertain readings are marked (?). Transcription carried forward from the project's review of register 390580; not re-read for this file.

Entries No. 18 and 19 — Baptism of twins, 19 April / 9 May 1824 (Bodenwerder)

Notes

The register is explicit that these were Zwillingssöhne, twin sons. The second twin, Ernst Friedrich Wilhelm, does not appear in this project's existing three-child list for the household and may be a previously unrecorded child.

Godparent 1 of twin (a) ties this Bodenwerder household to Linse: Friedemann Baumeister, Mühlenmeister zu Linse. That is a Linse milling title held by a man who is not a Wesemann, and it belongs in the Linse mill roster alongside Halbrodt.

The second twin's godparents were illegible in the earlier draft and are filled in here as a best-effort reading.
