Volk, godparents Jakob Wingelman and Theres. Kunkel. I'm not absolutely sure about the name Nicholas Francis, it is difficult to read.

Lamers and Maria Schirlo (must have meant Selhorst from her first marriage), godparents Bernhard Lamers and Apolonia Recker.

Maria Theresia Schmenk, Baptized on August 7, 1870, born on August 6, 1870, Holy Family Catholic Church, New Cleveland, Putnam County, Ohio, shows name as Maria Theresia, parents Hein. Schmenk and A. Margaretha Fenbert, godparents Herman Fenbert and Maria ?

Unknown Theodore Bohrer/Borer, Baptized on January 16, 1870, unable to read birth, looks like maybe January 5 but not sure, name is difficult to make out although the second name looks like Theodor so I assume it is male. The first name looks like it ends in "disam" but cannot make out the first part although it sort of looks like it begins with an F, just not sure. Parents are shown as Joseph Bohrer and Maria Seibel, godparents Ferdi. Hei. Wiesmeier (Wischmeyer?) and Maria Bollman (Bellman?). I assume this is Ferdinand Henry Wischmeyer and Mary Catherine Bellman. I also wonder whether if the godparent is Ferdinand if perhaps this child is Ferdinand. Difficult to pull that out of the handwriting but I suppose it is possible, Ferdinand or Francis Theodore?
