Is anyone good at reading names on baptism records from the 1800s?
Looking at Roeschlein, the first names
lines:
28, 33, 40, 43 and 57. Any help would be appreciated

Hello @NicoleTresnak,
Line 28: Paulus
Line 33: Johann Christoph Jacob
Line 40: Johann Paulus
Line 43: Anna Katharina
Line 57: Dorothea Maria Elisabetha
Comments: Note the small line above the letter "n" in "Johann" on lines 33 and 40, and in "Anna" on line 43. That small line is a scribal convention which means to double the "n" making the names "Johann" and "Anna".

There are also Roeschlein's on line 52 (Michael), 58 (Johann Konrad), 66 (Julianna Maria Elisabetha) and 67 (Johann Konrad).

Thank you. That is very helpful. I was surprised that the parent's names were not included.

This appears to be an index. The 5th column gives the page number where the record for the individual can be found. That record might include the parents names.

@JohnsonGreg is correct that this is an index.
The six translated column headings are:
Consecutive Number
Family Name
Forename
Volume
Page
Remarks
Note that all of the entries on these two pages are found in volume 5 of whatever this is an index to.

Good morning,
I will go back and look for the parents. Do you two gentlemen have time for a few more first names? I was laughing at myself. I would have never got some of the names. Thank you again
Roeschlein
Line 2,4,6,15 and 22
