Notes
The last word runs into the column rule. Paul, at the image on 22 October 2026: the ending reads clearly "Weseman" ("I read it, I see it as Weseman. Record it."). The doubtful words of the middle of the sponsor line do not bear on the name. Two entries earlier (1767 no. 24, D116) stands the baptism of a daughter of the "Maßmüller[?] Küster" and Anna Christina Wedemeier, the household of the Küster miller "aus Salz der Helden" (married 1764, D115). The earliest sighting of him: the baptisms from 1750 hold no earlier one (D896).
