Seeking help with what is written after the name of the bride (Maria Dorothea Kleinin). I can not provide a link because this was received in an email. This is a previous marriage of my 7th great-grandmother and I have been unable to determine the names of her parents or where she was born. Thank you.

Regards,

Ellen

Hi Ellen:


As Horst has already indicated, this record unfortunately does not provide parents' names, for either groom or bride. The word immediately after Kleinin is "testes", which means witness. Unfortunately, in the 17th century church-book marriage entries often contained only the names of the bridal pair and the two witnesses (or guarantors/bondsmen).
