entry #39. Hanns Seÿler is the father and Agnes is the mother. The child is Hanns Jach? Is the second word a name?

Hello @TerryCarlson,
I read the words after the child's name as "Jach taufte" = jachtaufte = emergency baptized.
Ernest Thode, German-English Genealogical Dictionary, defines the word "Jachtaufe" as: emergency baptism (of a child in frail health).

Thank you. Didn't even think about that.
I was hoping it would be a name because he has a brother 2 years earlier with the same name and I can't find a death for the first one.

You're welcome, Terry.
