Father's Occupation? (1859 in Mecklenburg-Schwerin)

Jerry Moors

Is there a German record expert out there who can tell me what Herman Vitense's father Johann's profession is in the record at the link? I have tried searching everywhere. I understand they were from the village of Naudin. But what is Johann's occupation please? Thanks. Jerry

The ending of the word seems to be -macher, but I have difficulties with the first 4(?) letters. Rast-, Rest-, Rust-, nothing makes really sense. Maybe someone else has a suggestion.

Could it be Rademacher? (wheelwright)

Edit to add: Looking at another childs baptism record, it does look like Rademacher:

I agree with @JohnsonGreg , Rademacher seems to be correct, although I wouldn't have recognized it in this record, but it's quite clear in the birth record of the other child..

I noticed you were missing the date of death for his first wife and marriage to his second wife. The 2nd marriage is here (26 April 1861):

It says something about his first wife happened 22 December 1860 and incorrectly gives her maiden name as Olandt. Her maiden name is Westphal of course; Olandt (or Ohlandt) is actually her mothers maiden name according to their marriage record. It might be saying he was widowed on that date but I'm not able to clearly read the two words that say what happened. I could not find a 22 Dec 1860 death for her in the Dambeck records.

Thanks everyone. I will work on this as time permits. Jerry
