English
On 21 February, to Hanß Christoph Bönig of Dohnsen, a daughter. Godparents: the wife of Henning Heinemeyer(?), of Heinrich Großmut(?) of Brembke(?); likewise Johann Heinrich König, the miller’s [...](?); and Maria Wasmann, of this place, Dohnsen. Name: Maria Margrethe.
Notes
> The words des Müllers are legible. This is the only occupational reference to milling anywhere in the twenty-four entries, and it attaches to König, not to Wasmann. > > The words between "des Müllers" and "und Maria Wasmans" do not resolve. Read as a place or a relationship term; neither parses. Flagged for re-reading at the leaf. > > First of six Bönig baptisms in this batch with a Wasmann sponsor.
