Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: German baptism translation from 1875
« on: Wednesday 03 January 24 20:04 GMT (UK)  »
Hi, I found the record on Family Search.
The citation on Family Search is:
 
Collection Information

Germany, Rhineland-Palatinate, Diocese of Mainz, Catholic Church Records, 1540-1952

Learn more about this collection through the FamilySearch Wiki.

Cite This Record

"Deutschland, Rheinland-Pfalz, Diözese Mainz, Katholische Kirchenbücher, 1540-1952", database, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:6CTY-GTY1 : 11 January 2021), Magdalenae Koebel in entry for Andream Raab, 1824.


There also appears to be a sister, Catherina Raab

I then wrote to the Mainz Archives who told me that the records for Ilbenstadt were still held at the Parish.
I looked up the Catholic Church on Google and wrote to the priest. He sent me the pictures from his records which I have posted here.

Thank you so much. I’ll attach both docs without markers. I don’t know any German so was guessing where the blanks in the English were in the  script!
Can you advise me…. These 2 baptisms were provided by the Catholic priest of Ilbenstadt. Same father, 43 years apart. I can’t find a marriage between the parents. Might it be that Valentin was baptised in the Lutheran church and so unable to marry a Catholic?
Thank you very much for your help

I believe ( thank you Gerry Farrell) that the bottom part of this monument still exists . Better picture on previous page. If anyone is going to Old Dalbeth and could take a pic of how it looks now I should be very very grateful.

Thank you so much Gerry. I am delighted that part of the monument is, or should I say, was, still standing. I wonder if it will still be there…..

Thanks again.
 It is a super photo. A lady in Germany who is distantly related to Anna Annacker spotted the name on my family tree on Ancestry and got in touch. She had also got in touch, also through Ancestry, with another distant relative of the Annacker family and they found this photo in an old box of letters and photos. She is going to look if there is a letter that was sent with it that might give further information.
Such serendipity!
