Translation. Conradine Elisabeth Waßmann, widow of the late Kleinköther (small cottage farmer) Johann Heinrich Waßmann; born the legitimate daughter of the Großköther the late Johann Christian Fischer and the late Sophie [Köthermeier] née Heinemeyer; unmarried mother of the late innkeeper and Köther Johann Wilhelm [Drangmeister]. Died 12 August at 5 a.m.; buried 14 August, quietly. Cause: […] and the weakness of old age. Age 81 years, 2 months, 12 days.
Changed from the earlier pass. The whole entry was previously illegible beyond the surname. It is the single most informative entry in the set: four generations are named or implied, and the husband’s landholding status (Kleinköther) is stated. Age corrected from twelve years to eighty-one. Born c. 1749, this woman is the earliest-born Halle Waßmann in the register.
