Translation (English)

Linse, 4 June [1786], a Sunday: to Johann Christoph Wasmann and Hanne Heinriette Meier, aged 28, a daughter (born 28 May, 8 in the morning). Godparents: Jo. Heinr. Wasmann; the miller Wäsemann; Joh. Heinr. Sagebiel's wife; the miller Düvel's wife; all of Linse. Named Marie Louise.

Notes

Four separate godparents, as the Addendum required: the miller Wesemann stood godfather at Linse on 4 June 1786, beside a Jo. Heinr. Wasmann whom the clerk keeps apart. The early reading "Johann Heinrich Wasmann, whose mother was née Wäsemann" is superseded. Grade: STATED.
