Hi Kent, do you know this list: http://www.ak-bd.de/files/Einwohner%201709.pdf ?
You can find many of the family names in Graben there.
The name of the first sponsor of Anna Barbara Scholl was probably Grünmeyer (or Grünmeir).

Good morning Robert. Thanks for a great translation. Sometimes when two children have the same sponsors it is an indication they are true siblings. MrG

You're welcome, Kent. Yes, I often use the baptismal sponsors as a clue to determine that the children come from the same family.
Re: The last sponsor named Hanß Bernhard: His surname is lost in the gutter of the book.

Robert, could the first three letters of Martin's last name be Grun? This translation has brought great clarity to Leonard Scholl's family!!! Thank you so very much! KG

Hello Kent,
I agree with @Ulrich Neitzel that Martin's surname is most likely a form of the name "Grünmeyer" or "Grünmeir".
In the 1661 record for Anna Christina Scholl, the fourth sponsor Hanß Bernhard's surname does appear to begin with a "Pf" so his surname could very well be "Pfister".
Because of the uncertainty of these surnames, you should enter them in your database with a "?".

I agree and have added the names with a "?". Thank you both for all the help on this. This is the culmination of lots of work on Leonard Scholl. Thanks for the link. I have not seen that surname list before. You two are amazing!!! Kent
