OTDIH - October 11th

October 11th, 1786 - At St. Paul's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Schoharie, Schoharie County, New York, USA, my 4th Great-Grandmother, Catherina Otto was baptised. She was the daughter of Frantz Otto and Marie Barbara Papst. Sponsors of the baptism were Johan Adam Bapst and his wife. I believe the Bapst instead of Papst is a transcription error. And that they were Catherina's maternal grandparents. 

The records for St. Paul's  Evangelical Lutheran Church were transcribed by the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society in 1914. The book was then scanned by The Genealogy Society, Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. And is now available on the FamilySearch website.
