Translation Assistance - Frankenau 1761

KathyBugianesi

German to English translation please

1. The record is from Landeskirchliches Archiv Kassel, Frankenberg, Frankenau, Kirchenbuch 1757-1796; Bild 1638
2. Herselbein/Herfelbein (?) - Catharine Elisabeth Hershelbein (sp?) was my 4th degree gr grandmother. An Ancestry user identified her birthdate as 1766, however this record is from 1761. It is possible that this is not the correct record for Catharine Elisabeth; maybe a sibling. I would like to be certain though. I also noticed there is a very faint cross next to this record.
3. The image was obtained from Archion
4. The image is attached; it is the full right page. The record requiring translation is Nr. 6; the second entry on the page.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

***Please note this is a repost of my question. The image would not attach to the original post, so I included it in a comment. I am trying the post again with the image attached in hopes that will work. The post was also marked as answered but was not.

I contacted support and they advised me to ask the community for suggestions on how to correct the problem and hopefully someone in this group could offer assistance.

Thank you for your patience with the reposting.

Hello @KathyBugianesi.

The name "Catharina Eliesabeth" is being inserted into record no. 7 and is unrelated to record no 6.

The child being baptized in record no. 6 is named Anna.

Here is a translated abstract of record no. 6:

Number 6.

Child: Anna Hesselbein.

Born: 27 April [1761], between 9:00 am and 10:00 am.

Baptized: 28 April [1761].

Father: Adam Hesselbein.

Mother: Anna Schefer.

Baptismal sponsor: Anna, née ____?, wife of the child's father's brother Wilhelm Hesselbein.

Comments: I am unable to decipher the baptismal sponsor's maiden surname. The year "1761" does not appear in this record and has been provided by you.

Hello again @KathyBugianesi,

In re-reading this record, I now realize that there is no maiden surname recorded for the baptismal sponsor.

The system will not allow edits to a response after four hours, so I am copying my original response here and making the necessary edits (the edited lines are shown in bold):

@Robert Seal_1 Thank you so much for your translation of the Frankenau birth record. The opposing page had the year clearly marked as 1761. With this translation, I now know I will need to return to the records to look for Catherina Eliesabeth Hesselbein's birth since the name was part of record no. 7, not 6. The information you provided is extremely helpful and greatly appreciated. Wishing you a great weekend.
