Sunday 14 April 1745 is baptized in the Church Bottes -- Elizabeth, lawful child, Mr Henry Giessendanner, & his wife Barbara, maiden name Hurger. Witness are Johann Chevillette, Mrs. Barbara Zangerin, maiden name Straumann & Mrs. Margareth Inabinet, maiden name Negely. The child was born Sunday morning about one hour before day the 27 day of January 1744/5 in the syn of the Ram. (Rev. Giessendanner) |
Comment Joop:
There is no such thing as a Church Bottes, it is the 'Gemeine Gottes" = congregation of God
Elisabeth is NOT the daughter of Henry, but the child of Hans Ulrich Giessendanner ( the younger Rev.)
The mother was Barbara Hug and NOT Hurger
Considerations
linked to the date of birth:
1. sign of the Ram/Aries (21 March - 20 April)
2. 27 January is consistent with Sunday (Old
style)(991212)
