Transcription (original language)

Translation (English)

On 5 [?] August Adam Borcholten had a daughter baptized; sponsors the wife of Christian Henren, Ilse Dorothea Hillebrecht and Joh. Ludewig Küster; she is named Ilse Dorothea (the cross: she died).

Notes

The godfather is written with both forenames, "Joh. Ludewig," where the father of 1742, 1746 and 1748 is always "Ludewig": POSSIBLY the young Johann Ludewig (born 1725, then 21–22), set apart by the clerk; the register does not say so. Grade: STATED (day doubtful).
