Hello Kent,
Heinrich's mother Caroline née Walther was from Hanau. So the sponsors may either be her relatives or - as Johann Heinrich Kühl is also a man of the law - he may be an acquaintance of his father.

Ulrich Neitzel: Thank you for this beautiful translation!!!!! It sounds like a very important family. Heinrich's father is a Full Professor of Law here. I assume here is Heidelberg, Baden. That being the case why are so many people mentioned in this document from Hanau?
