This post is a stub entry, and it will be added to as more information is available.

Sample 1

Five consecutive entries from the Kirchenbuch Wasserliesch 1752-1797, microfilm 560,289, no.1, page 1. This priest used a very minimized text for marriage records.

29th June Nicolaus Braun widower from Lursch and Anna Schuman widow of Mathias Reis from Lursch undersigned [testified] by the Count in faith J. Badamy curate in Wasserliesch

• Note that none of the marriage entries state specifically that the marriage was solemnized. That fact is inferred by the title of the volume, Heiratsregister.
