Transcription

15\. [Jun.] Johann Wes[t]ermanns Relicta an einer Brustkrankheit gestorben, und nach erhaltener concession stille beerdigt worden. [age column:] 59

Translation

No. 15, 15 [June 1770]. The widow of Johann Westermann died of a chest illness and, after permission had been obtained, was buried quietly. [Age:] 59.

Notes

The surname reads Westermann, not Wesemann: after the long s the letters t-e-r are visible before -manns. Salzhemmendorf has a large Westermann family; this entry should be set aside as Westermann.

Neighbours: 8 June Anna Clara Hagens, 68½; 17 June Johann Christoph Sickholt; 22 June Corporal Andreas Meyer, 64. Grade: STATED.
