The record
Image 87 (written pages 168–169, "1808") — MAJOR page, multiple priority hits
Entry 39 (1808) — Standing Rule 1 (Linse) + Priority 1 + Priority 7 + Priority 11 hit (dense). Village: Linse. 19 August, abends 9 Uhr. Father: [Häusling(?)] Heinrich Anton Schiffling(?) — a son born. Mother: Müllers(?) Dorothee Elisabet Stekker(?)/Siekker(?) [surname uncertain (?)], of Bevern(?), alt 39 Jahr. Godparents, all styled "aus Linse": Christoph Wasmann; Heinrich Viele; Conrad Sporleder's wife; Müller Brunig's wife. Baptized 21 August. Child's name: Johann Heinrich.
— Four hits in one godparent list: (1) Christoph Wasmann of Linse — exact match to the Priority 11 tracked household ("Appears twice in 1809, himself and his wife, both as godparents at Linse") — this 1808 sighting predates and corroborates that pattern. (2) A new Sporleder given name, Conrad, tied to Linse via his wife. (3) "Müller Brunig's wife," explicitly "aus Linse" — this pushes the Brunig-at-Linse milling sighting back a full year earlier than the previously-cited 3 November 1809 sighting, and confirms a Brunig mill household was established at Linse by August 1808 at the latest. Significant for Priority 7 (mills).

Godparents, all of Linse: Christoph Wasmann; Heinrich Viele; the wife of Conrad Sporleder; the wife of the miller Brünig. Baptized 21 August. Name: Johann Heinrich.
Correction on re-check: the father's surname reads more clearly as "Schöffleng" and the mother's name and origin as "Dorothee Elisabet Frikken, of Brotken" (both still marked (?)).
