Translation Request: Death Record of Johann Hemmer, Oberwald, Austria
Thank you for translating the birth and death record of Johann Hemmer, who appears to have been born on January 29, 1817 and died on the same day. The strange thing is that the death record says he was 18 years old. Any comments you have would be helpful, too.
On the birth record there is no name of a child but says something else I can't decipher.
