Seeking help with entry #8: Hans Peter Mohrwein and Maria Elisabeth on 22 MAY 1666. This is my oldest entry for this ancestor and I am seeking any clues to continue researching. Thank you for your time.

Thank you for your reply. I am very ignorant regarding Coats of Arms. Can someone explain "regency of Freiherr Schenck von Limpurg?" Does this have something to do with my ancestor or is it something referring to where he lives? I apologize for having no understanding of this.

Kind regards,

Ellen

It has nothing to do with your ancestor
it’s only a reference to the location of the place where Michael Glösinger lived.
