Translation (English)

2 February 1699: Maria Eleonora. Father Ludwig Küster; mother Anna Margaretha Boden. Sponsors Dr. G. Steinman, the daughter of Major Mayer, the daughter of the Amtsverwalter Rettberg.

Notes

A sixth child of Ludewig Küster and Anna Boden, after the five of 1687–1696 (F237); the sponsors are the Amtmann's circle, as at August Wilhelm's baptism in 1696. August Wilhelm (born 1696) named his own daughter Maria Eleonora (born Wallensen 1727; George's 2x great-grandmother, F57): a naming pattern that ties the two houses (PROBABLE as a pattern). Grade: STATED; PROBABLE that the father is the Salzderhelden master miller.
