Good evening. The attached link is part of the marriage entry of my ancestors: Charles BEILSTEIN and Salomee HOLLAENDER on 30 November 1805. I am interested in understanding what is written about the death of the bride's mother: Catharina Elisabetha MULLER. This is written on the top of the left page. I have included a link and an attachment. Thank you for any assistance.

Regards,

Ellen

Hi Ellen

It says

Catharine Elisabeth Muller, décédé le six Pluviose an onze, constaté par acte de décès delivré à Hombourg le dix-huit Brumaire an quatorze.

She died on the sixth day of the month called Pluviose in the year eleven of the French Republic, which was written in the death record which was sent to Hombourg on the eightteenth day of the month called Brumaire in the year fourteen of the French Republic.

six Pluviose an onze = 26. January 1803

Hello Ellen and Svenja,

Svenja : it’s almost correct but « délivré à Hombourg » doesn’t mean « sent to Hombourg » but « issued at Hombourg ».

Consequently I would suggest « as established in the death record issued at Hombourg on … »

Best regards
