Please help decipher names and relationships in this baptismal record in Volmarstein (Westfalia) in
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSLT-2PVC?i=97&cat=63623
Baptism # 32 (23 Dec 1737) of Johan Peter son of Joh. Died. ____, on the following page (link above) lists a witness of "Joh. Died. Vorberg, frau Margaretha Haarkotley(?) Joh. Pet. von der ____."
May I please have help determining what the names are in this document and why there appears to be a "frau" before one of the witnesses--and whose wife she is?
Thank you

the 23 of December, joh(ann) Died(erich) Stoltenhoff a son was brought to baptism, Johann Peter bapstised. godparents Johan Pet(er) Bircker, Joh(ann) Died(erich) Vorberg,
Mrs. Margarthe Haarkotte (I am not sure that whether there is an 'n' at the end of this name or whether there is a comma) Joh(ann) Pet(er) from the ? wife.
It seems that she is the wife of Joh(ann) Pet(er), as he has no last name and it is implied that his is Haarkotte.
