Can you provide a link to the image?

I did the workaround for submitting an image yesterday, and it showed the 'thank you' message, but I guess it didn't go through? The page says to not duplicate requests, so not sure what to do... I guess I will wait a few more hours. I could send the Ancestry link, but I'm not sure that's allowed?

You can either send the Ancestry link, or describe where on Ancestry it's found, i.e. collection and image number, or preferably both these things.

Oh, I meant that it's a marriage record! Sorry about that. 😅
I know the names of the couple— Johann Nicolas Brag and Catharine Scherer. The others are their parents, and Johann's previous wife.
Can anyone tell me if this document has anything otherwise of interest? Does it mention any locations besides Worms?
Thank you so much for your help!

@Ulrich Neitzel I am so grateful for the translation! It means a lot to me. I would never have known where they were from or their occupations. Thank you also for including links to the locations! This is so helpful in my search.
Thank you!!
