These corrections and clarifications are much appreciated. I have discovered there are seven child to this family and will attempt to interpret these records. I discovered on some of these records the mothers name was Katharina but could not understand this one. I was going with Sophina yet felt that couldn't be it. I also discovered that the records were indicating the number of each child and how many of sons and daughters. That was interesting to see.
Slow process and trying not to get frustrated/overwhelmed with the writing. I beg pardon for sending so many requests. Thank you immensely for all the support and help you all provide.

In looking at another record, I came across Sinn, which belongs to the parish of Fleisbach; that made me return to this record and re-read the squished writing after Ernestine Schnell's name, and I now believe it says Fleisbach, indicating that she is from Fleisbach and the others are from Edingen.
