The record

Image 148 (written pages 287a–287b(?), "1814") — priority hits only

Entry 22 — Dohnsen, 17 June 1814. Priority 9 hit. Another illegitimate-format entry: "Morgens 3 Uhr hat Louise Tolken einen Sohn geboren." Father named directly: "Vater Hans Harm Böni(?), Brinksitzer(?), aus Dohnsen gebürtig." Baptized 19 June. Godparents: Heinrich Ritsche(?), Dohnsen; Friedrich Bartels(?), Negenborn(?); Just Meyer, Dohnsen. — A third instance of the "Vater [name]" plain-naming convention for an out-of-wedlock birth, all within a few weeks of each other (Entries 19, 21(?), 22) — suggests this may simply be standard practice for this clerk/period rather than anything unusual, which itself is a useful negative-space finding for Priority 9.
