Notes

The first vowel and the middle letters are not secure in any row; clear Wiesmann/Weißmann and Wiegmann rows stand in the same run (1676, 1677, 1681, 1728; 1755), so these may be Wiesmann. No Wesemann or Weesemann row before 1737 or in 1747–1755 ("not seen"; dense Kurrent). Grade: STATED as index rows; POSSIBLE one household; THEORY Wesemann.

Note 20 October 2026: the register entries behind the rows of 1737 and 1742 read Christoph Wehmann (Burial_Records_Christoph_Wehmann_And_Wife_Osterode-Jakobi_1737-1742_Archion_359239_Bild_166-206).
