Right page, in the middle.
If you could please tell me where the groom is from. I tried to look in Myers Gazette with village’s beginning with a ‘B’ close to Holzheim but nothing seemed quite right.

Thanks so much.

Hello @DorisMiller1,

The place is written in Latin in the record as "Superiori Beiching" which in German is: Oberpeiching.

Here is the link for Oberpeiching from Meyers Gazetteer: https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/20381012

Since there is no detailed map or ecclesiastical information attached to the record for Oberpeiching in Meyers Gazetteer, here is the link for Unterpeiching from Meyers Gazetteer: https://www.meyersgaz.org/place/21004067

If you click on the "Map" link in the gray bar at the top of the entry for Unterpeiching you will find both Unterpeiching and Oberpeiching on the map.

If you click on the "Ecclesiastical" link in the gray bar at the top of the entry for Unterpeiching you will see that Holzheim is located approximately five miles (to the southeast) of both Unterpeiching and Oberpeiching.

I believe in another record I helped you with in the last week another of your ancestors also came from Oberpeiching.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Sincerely, Robert Seal_1

You're welcome, @DorisMiller1. It is exciting when you move back another generation.

P.S. How are you reading the surname in Georg's 1711 birth/baptismal record?

Thank-you @Robert Seal_1 . I should have been able to figure that out. I did see ‘Superiori’ and was wondering if that was the equivalent of Ober. I believe I have found Georg Roggesmiller’s BR. It is spelled slightly differently, but I am going with it. With your help and the baptism registry I am pretty confident that I have the correct record. He is on the left page in the middle. I really appreciate all your help. And now I have his parents names! (7th great-grandparents)
