Notes

  • No sponsors are entered; this section of the register omits them from late 1736.
  • Probably the bachelor 'Jo. Jürgen Brand, aus Linse, Frant Brands filius' who married Cath. Marg. Winter at Hunzen in 1766 (390646, Bild 61), and the 'Jo. Jürgen Brand, patruus infantis' at the 1769 baptism of Christoph Brand's daughter Marie Caroline (390648, Bild 22). If so, he is a brother of Christoph Brand. Grade: probable.
  • Grade: Stated (event, father); probable (identity with the 1766 groom and the 1769 patruus).
