Hello Kent

I am glad you are having a "super fun day" because that's what family history should be all about: having fun learning about your family and getting excited about new discoveries.

So here's how you should interpret the above (yes, "Bruder" = brother):

1700 Christoph Keller

1706 Peter Keller (Bruder d. Ch.) = 1706 Peter Keller (Brother of Ch[ristoph) (who is listed immediately above).

Robert, I looked in my list of mayors and sure enough there was Peter Keller. It says:

1700 Christoph Keller

1706 Peter Keller (Bruder d.Ch.)

I think Bruder means brother but don't know what the rest is saying. Thanks, this is a super fun day because of you. KG

Thanks, I thought so, but until I get the word from the expert, I'm unsure. Thanks for being my teacher!!!😎 KG
