\nLouise, illegitimate daughter of Peter Gade<\/p>\n

On the night of Saturday, February twenty-sixth, in the year of the Lord, eighteen-hundred twenty-five between eleven and twelve o’clock, Katharina n\u00e9e Pfeiffer, widow of the deceased local citizen and wagon maker Konrad Kalbfleisch who died the 17th of January 1814, gave birth to a daughter and, on the sixth of March, the child was baptized and given the name Louise.<\/p>\n

The father of the child has made himself known: Peter Gade, the surviving, unmarried son of the deceased Johannes Gade, former resident and blacksmith at Ernsthausen in Chur-Hessen.<\/p>\n

\nLouise Schneider, legitimately born daughter of Jakob Schneider citizen and carpenter here, who has signed the present document next to the father and me, the minister who performed the baptism.<\/p>\n

\n[signed] Peter Gade; Johann Konrad Spamer.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Since the father’s father, Johannes Gade, was a resident of Ernsthausen in Chur-Hessen, I will have to learn where Ernsthausen was in order to trace the Gade ancestral line back further in time.<\/p>\n
