I could be wrong but I believe the pastor was:
Graben 1861-1897 Heinrich Konrad Johann Zimmern.

Hello @Kent Gardiner ,
I do believe that the entry is signed by a vicar Zipperer, because
- the signature is very clear and readable (and not Zimmern)
- the handwriting and signature of pastor Zimmerer is quite different, see the death notice of Philipp Wilhelm Köhler
- in 1896 Heinrich Zimmern was a pastor and not a vicar (which is an assistant clergyman)
Vicar Zipperer may have been in this parish as part of his career, assisting pastor Zimmern. In fact, on the web I found a Karl Zipperer (1870-1936) mentioned as pastor in Weiler (Baden) in 1905 (https://www.ekiba.de/service/bibliotheken-und-archiv/landeskirchliches-archiv-karlsruhe/blog-archiv-2018/).

Ulrich, thank you. I assumed the pastor did all the work but of course he had help. I read the story of vicar Karl Zipperer and Zimmermann. A little moment of drama for the two men. Great site with lots of information on church activities. Best regards, Kent
