February was baptized Anne-Michelle, daughter of Jean Martin [maybe "locksmith," starts with "s"] and Michelle Coupé … this morning at 10 o'clock, the godfather is Sieur Miguel [looks clear, though not a French name] secretary-ordinary of the chamber of the king, director-general of customs [looks like 'douane'] of the [?] of the [?] of Paris [seems to be a quite lengthy title] and the godmother Anne Gaudion, wife of Monsieur [another name and title] … councilor of the king, and lieutenant of… [signed by Anne Gaudion] Note on Anne Gaudion: From Dictionnaire historique et généalogique des familles du Poitou. Translation: "Bonamy (Joseph), knight, seigneur de Meures [maybe the name that looks like 'Miguel' above], qualified by acts of 24 November 1654 and 8 May 1658, ordinary gentleman of the king's chamber and receiver of the "elect. du Blanc", had as wife Anne Gaudion…" and then the children are named.
