Transcription request: 1699 Baptism Record, Gelting

Please help with or verify this transcription for Hans Nilsen's daughter…

24 Sept Hans Nilsen Wittwer [taufe?]

Daughter Anna Margaretha

Sponsors: Fr. von Ahlefelden

Anna Catharina [Karau?]

Nils Nilsen sohn

My initial interpretation is that this implies that Hans Nilsen was deceased at the time of this baptism??

Also, the last line references "the son of Nils Nilsen" or "Nils Nilsen, son of Hans"??

@Robt_Nielsen

I think the word after Hans Nilsen is Wittwe (widow) rather than Wittwer, so it would mean that the widow of Hans Nilsen had a daughter Anna Margaretha baptised.

I can't make out the first letter of the second sponsor's surname, and there is too little material in this clipping for comparison .

I would identify the last sponsor as "the son of Nils Nilsen".
