No. 14. Linse, 24 May [1767]. Christoph Brand and [his wife] née Voges [had] a son [baptized] (born 20 May at 4 in the morning).

He was named Johann Christoph.

Notes

The word after 'Hennig Voges' decides whether he was the mother's brother (frater) or father (pater, Vater). Not settled at screen size; a person should read it. Grade: unproven.

No cross after the name; a second Johann Christoph was born in 1775.

Grade: Probable (identity); draft read.
