[merkinmuffly]

I apologize for writing in English. I am struggling with a few words in this marriage entry. Can anyone help?

1. The words denoted by ??? appear to be the same, and start with "hin," but I am not sure how to read them.

2. Why are both fathers described as "brauer"? This word appears in XXII and XXIII as well. Does it just mean "brewer of beer"?

3. If anyone has a better reading of the words marked with (?), I would be most grateful.

Vielen Dank!

Good evening Jim,

„weyland“ is an old historical term that ist no longer in use this way. The meaning of it was something like „ just now“ .

 

[HenrietteHermann]

„ funfter Sohn“ : jüngster Sohn. ( The youngest son )

Correction:
weiland/weyland means the mentioned person is no longer alive at the time of the entry.

@KoenigAguar

Yes.

The right to be allowed to brew beer was a special privilege (way not all inhabitants -or even citizens- of a certain place were allowed to do so) and needed to be granted (for a limited time period) explicitly by the city council or the city major.

Thus it also required renewal from time to time.
