Good morning,

I have come across the word "Poor" written after some baptism entries in an 1800-1812 baptism register.

Can you explain the significance, and/or the specific reason why Poor was written after an entry.

Good afternoon,

can you please check and confirm whether I have translated the burial entry correctly:

1605 August 27 Uxor [Wife of] Maier [Mayor] Marshall buried August the 27 day.

The word I am not too sure about is Maier.

Thank you for taking the time to look.
