This page makes me scratch my head 😉. The page top states 1808. Let me now summarize the bottom part:
25.12. Heinrich des Hans Jakob Wolfensperger
17.07. Barbara des Hans Konrad Flachsmann - (born or baptised) in Uster
28.10. Jakob des Jakob Weber (illegitimate) - (born or baptised) in Rorbas
This is followed by some statistics for 1808.
20.12. Johannes der Emerantiana Heß (illegitimate??) - (born or baptised) in Oetwil
no date Jakob der Anna Maria Weinmann (illegitimate??) - (born or baptised) in Zürich
15.10. Heinrich des Rudolf Jenta von Etenhausen & Lisabeth Freÿ von Birr - no place for baptism mentioned
31.07. Marx des Johannes Günthardt - baptised [….].
25.06. Anna Maria des Salomon Bachofner - baptised in Zürich-St.Peter
18.10. Anna Wilhelmina des Johann Wilhelm Burri - baptised in Zürich
This makes me think we have here external births/baptisms, entered in the order in which notifications arrived in Wetzikon: I would assumed these children will likely have been baptised in the nearest parish to their place of birth.
What does that mean for Heinrich's baptism? No place mentioned! If he was born and baptised in Wetzikon: why is the entry not in the chronologically correct place - either top of this or bottom of previous page (which you also have uploaded)?

WSeelentag Heinrich is not listed in either the page before or the page after this entry. Heinrich could have been baptized in Birr where his mother was from. Unfortunately we don't have access to those records.
Thanks for all the work on this page!! It is strange to have all of these random non-baptisms listed at the bottom of the page. The Haushaltungsrodel gives his birth at 16 October 1808. 🤔
