Hello Ulrich,
Thank you for the translation. I haven't found a marriage record yet for Joseph and Agnes. That will be next for me!
Also very happy to find Elisabeth's surname was actually Trattner. Ancestry translated her name to be Haber as it says on the first line. Confusing!
Best to you!

Re: Haber /Trattner
As I understand it Elisabeth was born illegitimately and received the surname "Trattner" from her mother. Later, possibly by adoption, she received the name "Haber".

Re: „in der Magdalena"
On this page, there's a link to an old map (Franziszeischer Kataster) of the area. North/East of Judenburg there's the „Magdalenenvorstadt". This may be what they meant when they wrote that someone lived 'in the Magdalena'.

That is good to know! I wondered about that.
Question: Do you think that Agnes married Joseph Salzer or does it mean she married " ____ Mayer? at Plestetten?
I ask because I found this marriage record for Anges dated May 12, 1825, where she married a Franz Mayer.

Yes, Agnes married Franz Mayer. Joseph Salzer was the father of Blasius; he did not marry Agnes, the mother, but acknowledged the paternity. This was probably the reason why Blasius was allowed to take the family name Salzer.

Oh my goodness! Amazing! Thank you for looking at the additional record of Anges' marriage to Franz, Ulrich.
