(These dates under the "born" columns for the children in each family are actually christening dates, and not birth dates -- hence the * next to each date). The extracted christening records also provided a few different alternate spellings for the names of some of the parents of each of these families: Ignatius Werner also went by Ignaz or Ignatz (which I've found is a common shortened form of this name). Also, Hyronimus' name was also spelled Hieronimus and Hironimus. And his wife, who's name was spelled Richardis on their marriage record, was recorded with the following spellings on her children's christening records: Richardis, Richarda, and one instance of Richard. Oh, and I noticed that Katharina and her husband only had one child, and I wondered if this may have been because Katharina was a little older when she got married (her marriage record said that she was 38 year old). Oh, and isn't it cool that there are a couple of the daughters with forms of the name Stephanie -- I've never run into my name before in my genealogy research, so that's kind of fun too.
