Sy Scholfield quotes from "Die Kinder Maria Theresias: Leben und Schicksal in kaiserlichem Glanz" by Charlotte Pangels (Callwey Georg D.W. GmbH, 1983), p. 228: "... wurden gegen 3 Uhr Nachmittag mit einer zwar sehr klein und schwachen Prinzessin entbunden, welche noch selben Abends gegen 8 Uhr laut aufschlüssigen Protocolls Extract von dem Nuncio getaufft und Maria Elisabeth Josepha Johanna Antonia benammset wurde."

Translation: ... around 3 o'clock in the afternoon a very small and weak princess was delivered, and the same evening at 8 o'clock she was baptized with the names Maria Elisabeth Josepha Johanna Antonia.

Same data in Wiener Zeitung, 14 August 1743, p. 7: "Dienstag, den 13... Nach-mittag gegen 3. Uhr" (Tuesday, the 13th ... in the after-noon at about 3 o'clock).
