Translation of Hanss Adam Schmitt's Record
Please help translate this record. It is a baptism record for a Hanss Adam Schmitt, son of Hanss Adam Schmitt. I think he was baptized 15 March 1696 at Rimbach, Heppenheim, Germany. I think it is saying that the mother's name was Anna Marien. Does it give a surname for her? I am not sure what else is in this record or if I have misread anything.
Thank you for your help!

I see:
On the same day was baptized Hans Adam, son of Hanß Martin Schmidt of Unter Mangelbach and his wife Margrethe.
Then it lists the sponsors but I'm having difficulty reading them. The mothers maiden name isn't given.

Thank you for your help, Greg! These records are extremely difficult to read. It doesn't help when my eyes stray to the previous entry and record the wrong mother's given name.
What are the three words after the mother's given name? I think the godparent is name Adam and he is some relationship to another Adam of Untermengelbach, but after that I am totally lost.
Another question, after the entry, it is written 1694/3. I know the parents married in 1694, but they married in November. Would the 3 be in reference to the entry of the marriage that year? It is very common to see things like 1694/3 written at the end of each birth record for this family.
