Notes for Matthias Brachtendorf
Source: Records of St. Martin and St. Severus Catholic Church in Muenstermaifeld.
His baptismal sponsors were Matthias Kalter and Katharine, the wife of Johann Port of Gierschnach. The dates in the baptismal record were inconsistent. The date given for his birth was “ultima” but then the month October was listed. The date given for his baptism was January 1 [1753]. Because the previous baptism in Gierschnach was in November, he was probably born on December 31 and baptized on January 1.
