Marriage translation, please
Hi, the transcribed info looks correct on this marriage record, but can you help translate the minor details? I'm looking for some small genealogical clues!
Thanks!

Very helpful… I am trying to tie together several references to a Frederick Wilhelm Weissbrodt lineage to several lineage references to a Wilhelm Weissbrodt… the thought being that this is the same person. However, this one says "daughter of the master joiner Friedrich Wilhelm Weisbrodt at Fraustadt" whereas other references say Wilhelm Weissbrodt is a clothcutter… any idea if those professions are even in the same industry?

I would think a clothcutter and a joiner (who is essentially a person who assembles wooden furniture) are two unrelated professions.

Thought so… the search continues… ty!
