Hello @csl,
You're misinterpreting the second-to-last and next-to last columns on the right-hand page.
Second-to-last column heading translates as: Place and time of death.
Next-to-last column heading translates as: Place and time of burial.
The twins were female and were born prematurely.
Twin no. 1, who lived for 1 hour, died on 1 November 1833 at 5:00 pm.
Twin no. 2, who lived for 50 hours, died on 3 November 1833 at 1:00 pm.
Both twins were born on 1 November 1833.
Both twins were buried on 4 November 1833.
Let me know if you need the entire record translated.
