Er wird der Hoferbe und heiratet am 16.2.1733 die Anna Margaretha Silberg aus Wasten.  Vielleicht soll es Warstein heigen, denn die Silberg hat seit 4 Jahren in Schmerlecke gewohnt.

Approximate translation:

He becomes the inheritor of the Farmyard (Lusebrink) and marries on 16.2.1733 Anna Margaretha Silberg of Wasten.  Perhaps it should be Warstein heigen, for the Silberg have lived for 4 years in Schmerlecke.
