Notes

The Jacob of 1648 is the Jacob Brand of Halle who died in 1732 only if his burial age reads 84, not 89 (image check B3.21d-5; F132). Arend and Barthold as kin: THEORY. Halle households, not Linse (Part 4.2). Grade: STATED for each line as read (screen drafts; 1646 and 1651 sponsor POSSIBLE).
