Good afternoon @Kent Gardiner,
Translation:
On the 26th of December [1767], in the morning after 11:00 am was born and on the 27th [of December 1767] was baptized: Johann Wilhelm Cammerer.
Parents: Jacob Cammerer, the local citizen, and his wife Maria Margaretha, née Grünenmaierin.
Baptismal sponsors: Georg Wilhelm Kloning, unmarried master joiner here, [and] his bride [to be] Elisabetha, née Grünenmaierin. Wendel Scholl, unmarried citizen's son here. Maria Margaretha, née Zimmermännin, wife of Johannes Mezger, the local citizen.
Right margin: died 18 July 1844.
Comment: Regarding the first two baptismal sponsors, I added the words "to be" to the word "bride" because this couple doesn't marry until about six weeks later in February 1768: https://www.ancestry.com/discoveryui-content/view/1812703:61060

Wonderful, wonderful. Wendel didn't marry until 1771 so all of these sponsorships with him as unmarried make complete sense. It does seem a little funny to have a sponsor who is unmarried but we have seen plenty of them in these records. Thanks for your extra research. After telling my brother about you and how much time you put into translating - he now thinks you are amazing too. 😊 KG
