Brother Schwab -- If you would download the image, you can then upload it to the screen using the little "image icon" at the bottom of the Comment field. That will make it much easier to read.

Thank you!

FYI: The image is very hard to read because it's a screen shot. Can you provide a link to the image please?

I am glad that I wasn't the only one who had trouble reading it. It comes from the Loffelstelzen Parrish record microfilm #008643034 Image 506 It is, a Family Register for Georg Ruf (DOB 7 June 1776) is the father, and Maria Eva Landwehr (DOB 11 December 1840 ?) is the mother. I was able to figure out about 50% of names and dates. Perhaps you can help me with the balance. I am a fairly new Senior Service Missionary at the Riverton Family Search Center and I do not speak nor read German, but I am learning. I have a page of Old German Type and Handwriting examples which seems to help a little. I am not very "techy" but I am learning slowly. Thank you for any help you can offer.
