The source is from FamilySearch: Tauf-Rodel, Staatsarchiv Bern, K Kirchdorf 3. The baptism record is on page 120, year 1777, entry 15, for Jost Küenzi. I don't need help with the translation except I was wondering what the meaning could be of witness Hans Küenzi's occupation Obmann (chairman).

Thank you!

    Thank you very much for explaining "Obmann" and which of the three is most likely the meaning for the witness from Uttigen. That is interesting and helpful.
