Bild 132 — [day] 1733, Dohnsen(?)
Baptism. Wasmann role: godmother (David’s daughter, again).
German
[Preceding entry’s name, top:] Nomen: Hans Herman. — d. den 2ten [month] sind Gevattern: [Hein]rich Herman(?); Hanß Jacob Schulten Sohn; it. Johan Bre[m]er(?), seines Vaters Sohn; und Ihr[e] Maria Wasmans, Davids Tochter. Nomen: [below the crop].
English
On the 2nd of [month], the godparents are: [Hein]rich Herman(?); the son of Hanß Jacob Schulte; likewise Johann Bremer(?), his father’s son; and Maria Wasmann, David’s daughter. Name: [not captured].
Notes
The heaviest-blotted leaf in the batch. The father’s name and the entry date are both lost above the crop, and the first godparent’s forename is unreadable.
Maria Wasmann, David’s daughter, is the same woman entered as David filia on Bild 129(1) eighteen months earlier. The clerk identifies her the same way both times, which is how the David Wasmann household is held together across the batch.
No new head-name and no new household. Included for completeness of the surname sweep rather than for what it adds.
Transcription (German)

Notes
Bild 132, left page, the "d. eodem" entry; heavily blotted. The two entries after it (9 and 15 February) have no Brand. The file is renamed from "Unnamed_Child" now that the father and name are read. Grade: POSSIBLE (the Brand name legible; forename and context under ink blots).
