Hi:

I think I have found my elusive witness. I have a record with him that is unreadable. I'm not a quitter so I searched days until I found this record.

Jakob Voth

The witness Johann Ludwig (what is his surname) and his occupation please.

Thank you!

Hello @Martha Murray

Johann Ludwig Trost, citizen, farmer, and community or parish ____?

The last word begins with "Gemeinde" which translates as: community or parish. Hopefully another community member will be able to decipher this for you.

Thank you, @DeTe1955.

Super as I now have five records with the same witness. It must have been his side hustle.

Thank you all!
