Need help with Latin written in old German script
« on: Tuesday 13 April 21 20:52 BST (UK) »
Can anyone help me with this?  What I know is it is the baptism date of 20 Feb. 1797 for my relative Maria Gudula (I have Lohndorff in my records for the surname).  I also recognize her marriage date of 2 Feb 1834 to her husband Martin Beutgen in the right margin.  Can somebody help me with the rest of it.  I'd really like to at least get the names of the parents of Maria Gudula (possibly Lohndorff).

Thanks for any help.

Maybe I'm reading this all wrong?
20 feb I baptized Mary Gudula placed on the 19th at the door of Ann Hellen widow and relict of ?? James Brennen and found in the same place. Godparents Michael Brennen ?p.t. consul and M. Gud. Rittera?? called Esch wife of the assistant consul.
