Needing help translating a German birth, christening and death record
I'm trying to read a birth and christening record in Osterwohle Parish for Johann Heinrich Peters from Henningen. I believe he was born 3 December 1810 and died 8 December 1810. I'd like this confirmed and would like the christening and burial dates. His parents are Johann Heinrich Peters and Catharina Elisabeth Riek. There is a Joachim Heinrich Riek mentioned. Does it tell his relationship to the mother? Film 102070137 image 634: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSWD-9SPQ?i=633&cc=3015626&cat=134314
Thanks so much!

The birth and death dates are correct. Since this is a civil record (information was reported to and recorded by a civil servant) no christening or burial dates are included.
Joachim Heinrich Riek is the neighbor and brother-in-law of the informant (so mother's brother), age 31 years.
