On 18 February 1682/83 was baptised Susanne, daughter of Jacques Fere the younger, having as godfather Jacques Fere his father, and as godmother(s) his mother and Sara Delespau, widow* of Isaac Delespau. Born 12 February 1682/83.

     = 3 godparents (the paternal grandparents + Sara Delespau)
     * written as v = veuve = widow
      (Mother not named)
