Notes

> Second surviving child of the Halle tailor household, two years and ten months after Dorothea Maria. > > The place read as Eichholtz cannot be matched to a village in this parish. It needs checking against the parish’s own village list before it is cited. > > h.t. Subulcus Tuchtfeldensis — at this time swineherd of Tuchtfeld — is a Latin styling and confirms Tuchtfeld as a settlement served by this church. > > The year total, Summa 36, is a useful control: thirty-six baptisms in 1733 across the whole parish. A full read of any single year is a manageable piece of work.
