It says she was the oldest daughter of the deceased Andreas.
She was alive and kicking at the time of the baptism

Much obliged for the clarification.

Do you think that wording regarding the father - "als Vater ist angezeigt Joh. Gottlob Schoenherr, ein Schmied" - and the lack of detail regarding his parentage and residence - implies that he was not present at the baptism and that his name and profession were supplied (perhaps erroneously) by Johanna Rosina?

I'm glad about that! Thanks for clarifying it.
It threw me that there is no "des" in this example. I thought the "weihl." was for her.

Still learning.  ;D

Parents     Father:
is indicated as father
Joh. Gottlob Schoenherr,
a blacksmith

This is the info the bride gave to the priest.
His parents names and place of residence were normally noted on birth baptism records. She obviously didnt have this information.
He could have been a journeyman.
They could have married at a later date
