Translation (English)

No. 4. Linse, 26 January [1769]. Christoph Brand and Anne Catharina Voges [had] a daughter [baptized] (born 21 January at 10 in the evening). Godparents: 1) Johann Heinrich Wasmann; 2) Johann Jürgen Brand, the child's paternal uncle; 3) the wife of Caspar Hansters[?], these three of Linse; 4) the wife of Johann Meyer of Dielmissen. She was named Marie Caroline.

Notes

'patruus infantis' (the child's father's brother) makes Johann Jürgen Brand a brother of Christoph Brand. He married in 1766 as 'Frant Brands filius' (390646, Bild 61), which makes Franz Brand Christoph's father (probable). The word 'patruus' needs a person's check.

The Dielmissen godmother agrees with 'aus Dielmissen' in 1764 and 1775.

Grade: Probable (identity); stated (the uncle, pending a check of 'patruus').

Conventions

[ ] editorial addition or expansion; [?] uncertain reading; [...] illegible or outside the crop; [sic] as written. Spelling, capitals and abbreviations follow the register. Draft reading from screen-resolution images, not yet checked by a person.

Notes

Right page, "Geboren ao. 1769" (p. 39), entry 4; clear at zoom. "patruus" confirmed. The sponsor Jo. Heinr. Wasmann of Linse is the local Wasmann (his wife stood for Christoph Brand's son in 1766, and a Johann Heinrich Wasmann married Marie Catharine Wollenweber at Halle in 1763), not the miller, who married in 1770 and came to Linse in 1774 (probable; Grade: STATED.
