Translation Request, please, for Given Names
I'm looking for help deciphering the Given Names on this Family Register. The common ones, like Anna and Heinrich and Jakob, I can recognize, but I'm still learning other given names of the culture. This is actually a Swiss record, but it's from a Swiss-German region, so I'm looking for help from anyone who might have insight. I know the Given Names column is a little blurry, but the original is in Switzerland and this image is all I have. Just having this image is truly a
miracle. Any help/guidance/tutoring would be so appreciated! -A Campbell

Thank you for your help and prompt reply! Those two are quite the mystery aren't they?!

I think the last one on the list is Hedwig.

You're welcome, @campbellam.

Hedwig! I can see that! I've tried finding names that started with X, Ch, and even G to no avail. But, I can see the letter heights matching Hedwig!! :) Thank you @sylviaelchinger1.

I have requested (and received) a better copy from Zivilstandsamt (Civil Registry Office) Zurzach (Aargau):
A complete transcription can be found in Geneal-Forum.
