Item #230 records the baptism on Aug 20, 1865, of Christian Wilhelm Ecker; born Aug 13, 1864; son of Jakob Ecker (whose occupation I cannot translate Cu*g**ter) and his wife Anna Maria (Jatter? Jetter). God parents are Uncle Wilhelm Ecker and Katharina Öse (Ecker). Bei mir translates "with me." This is in the "Remarks" column. In all contiguous records, either an address or this phrase is present, and never both. I hypothesize this means "Nearby?" Any other opinions out there? |
