Notes

> Badly blotted leaf; the middle two lines are largely lost. Charlotte Wasmann of Halle is secure, the rest is not. > > A Brachmann sponsors here and a Brachmann, styled Halbmeyer at Halle, sponsors the tailor’s daughter three years later on Bild 121. The two Halle households were in a reciprocal sponsorship relationship.
