This child has two birth/baptismal records. The birth records on his FamilySearch Family Tree are both on microfilm 1056665: one is on image 329, entry 9, and the other is on image 275, entry 9. Translated, they state:
Image 329:
- Wilhelm Christian; a foundling [Findelkind]; died [+] 27 August 1808 [his death record, linked, lists him as a foundling whose parents are unknown].
- This child was disloyally abandoned by its mother, and on 29 May of the current year [1808], between 2 and 3 a.m., it was found, wrapped in a pillow, on the steps of the house of Johannes Schwarzmajer, church building and grounds superintendent here, next to a little note, which read: To the holy one [church building and grounds superintendent] in Friolsheim [Friolzheim], the innocent child is presented for safekeeping, ? [this part is unclear but is something about Moses; it might be whose name can be baptized as Moses]--our Savior says: What you do unto one of the least of my people, that ye have done unto me. The child was housed by/given lodging with the old Johann Georg Seigneur here, because the child's mother could not be asked/consulted.
- Born: about at the beginning of May 1808
- Baptized: 29 May 1808
- Baptismal witnesses: Mr. Andreas Seiter, village mayor here; Miss Louisa Lettersin [Letters]; Johannes Schwarzmajer, church building and grounds superintendent here, in front of whose house the child was laid.
- family book register: stranger [Fremd(er)]
Image 275 (image 274 states that according to a new ordinance of 1808, each record was to be kept/written twice, hence the duplicate entries; this entry is shorter than the other, however):
- Born about at the beginning of May 1808; baptized on 29 May
- Child's name: Wilhelm Christian, a foundling [Findelkind]; died 27 August 1808
- Parents: This child was disloyally abandoned by its mother, and on 29 May of the current year [1808], at 3 a.m., it was found, wrapped in a pillow, on the steps of the house of local church building and grounds superintendent Schwarzmajer, and afterwards it was given lodging here.
- Baptismal witnesses: Andreas Suter, village mayor here; Miss Louisa Letters, unmarried; Johannes Schwarzmajer, church building and grounds superintendent here, in front of whose house the child was laid.
- family book register: stranger [Frembd(er)]
