English translation
Catharina Barbara, daughter of Georg Rau and Barbara née Hein, born and baptized 16 October 1777. The family register gives her confirmation (1791) and a marriage, so the cross here is not a death mark.
Notes
One of six baptisms of Johann Wendel Rau's siblings read on 24-25 October 2026; the dates to find came from the family register p. 332 (79206). The mother's surname reads Heinin (n/m doubt recorded).
