Name Transcription Needed - 1642 Baptismal Record
Boy these older baptismal records are challenging me.🙄 I'm trying to figure out the given names for these relatives of mine from the baptismal records found on Matricula Online from the St. Vincentius parish in Haselünne, Germany. Following are snippets of the records as well as the links to the original records.
Parents: Lambertus Mest & Alheidis
Birth - Sept. 22, 1642
4th record down on the left side.
The second record is for the next sibling.
Birth: November 27, 1644
5th record down on the right side
This one appears to me to be "Annotons Hermannus" but I've never seen that first name before so wanted to confirm.
Thank you,
Darlene Bills

Hello @darlenegaylebills1,
Both names are very unusual. Here is what I read:
First image: _elkingia. I cannot decipher the intial capital letter.
Second image: Arnotons Hermannus.

You're welcome, Darlene. Good idea to search for other records where perhaps the names will be easier to decipher. FYI: I searched through the records on other pages in this parish register hoping to find these names but with no success.
