English translation
Catharina Dorothea Küttel [Güttel], daughter of Johann Gerhardt Küttel, journeyman carpenter and citizen here, and Eva Margaretha née Röb[...] of this place; born 23 December 1815 at 5 a.m., baptized 24 December. Godmother: Catharina Dorothea Legat, wife of Master Johann Legat, citizen and tailor here. Margin: died 2 July 1843.
Notes. Johann Legat's wife in 1815 was Catharina Dorothea, and he was a master tailor and citizen: it agrees with the 1803 marriage (Katharina Dorothea Wunderlich) and the 1804 baptism of Barbara. The child and the margin death are not of the family. Image to save: Bild 120, left page, no. 56.
