Hello @PaulaRail1,
Bride's name: Susanna Elisabetha "Weyhrauchin" = Weyhrauch (the "in" is a suffix added to German female surnames but it is not part of the surname).
Father of the bride: Johann Wilhelm Weyhrauch.

Thank you so much. I really appreciated it!. I am working on learning the old handwriting but, if it is a name I am not familiar with I am stumped. Thank you for letting me know about the in on the end of the name. I had been wondering about that. Also on many of the documents I have someone has x the record out. You can read the document but it has been crossed out Here is an example.
Thanks again. Paula Rail

Paula, In my German documents when an entry is crossed out it means the person has immigrated to America and the pastor is done with that record.

That is interesting Kent. Now I will have to go back and look at those records more closely to see if that is the case. Thanks for responding. Paula Rail
