Translated abstract of this baptismal record:

Thanks so much Robert. Yes, he is from Bergendorf. He is my 3rd great- grandfather. And a start on my 4th great-grandparents!

Is a Zeugweber a weaver?

It is not clear to me that the word after Andreas Baumgartner is really an occupation. First, since the record is in Latin the occupation should also be in Latin. Second, in other records on this page similar strange "occupations" appear, e.g. , "Thomasauß" in the second, "Altenoberlender" in the third, and "Oberlender" and "Mikelomiller" in the fourth.
Could it be that these are just some sort of additional names or place names?

Zeugweber = cloth weaver or simply weaver.
